Re: [Inkscape-user] Web design using Inkscape.
I build a webapp ( runs on our product, not on the 'net) that uses a very large Inkscape SVG in a dynamic AJAX setup that makes images of LEDs blink and animates boards moving in and out of a chassis.
I'm no SVG expert but I have got some things working. Can I help?

Can you share the svg file? Your copyright respected of course.
No, else I'd just put it up for viewing. heres is a screenshot: http://jawfish.net/images/Screenshot-webapp-disguised.png
The important thing is that very complex SVG drawing can be rendered fast enough, and you can then animate the parts. Also it scales beautifully.
In my drawing there is a typical computer blade server chassis with six slots. Each slot has three optional drawings of differing boards, and a blank plate. Plus the power supplies and fan trays, plus two Ethernet switches. Each element (board, fan, switch, power supply) has a status and the app can change the look to match the status. There are something like 100 LEDs to manage
Gotcha: doesn't work in IE at all, use recent Chrome or FF to view SVGs.

HTML unless you have some interactive SVG content.
But, aside some possible Internet Explorer compatibility problems, *why* do you think is a good idea?
Regarding the file size optimization, I see your SVG is 19 KB while the PNG us 433 KB, using SVG would make for a way smaller total page size.

With IE9, microsoft has implemented a basic SVG set: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/ie/hh410107.aspx
I suspect it was rendered to PNG not for size constraints but computing constraints, looking at gvirabi, there's a fairly large circular gradient, with some machines that may cause a problem.
I could be wrong though.
