I made a quick-n-dirty mock-up of my very first svg web site. Obviously it's one big image (300k) which isn't going to cut it. Also, I used the object property (which controls the layout when one clicks on one of my links). :( Next up is how to slice it up and stick it back together via css.
Is there a method for crushing or compressing svg graphics for the web. Hmm...
You may consider saving the final SVG as "plain svg", it will reduce the size a bit (but very little) and make use of clones as much as you can.
Also you can use compressed SVG (.svgz) but I noticed it does not work out-of-the-box and I doubt it usefulness in the first place if you have a correctly configured web server using mod_gzip.
Opera 9.5 renders the site the best so far.
http://svg.heathenx.org for the curious.
Thanks, Nicu.
