The spec currently says: "User agents must not support non-image resources with the img element (e.g. XML files whose root element is an HTML element). User agents must not run executable code (e.g. scripts) embedded in the image resource. User agents must only display the first page of a multipage resource (e.g. a PDF file). User agents must not allow the resource to act in an interactive fashion, but should honor any animation in the resource." I'm happy to add more (e.g. blocking subresources). I'd be even happier to do so in a way that explicitly hooks in to some logic on the SVG spec side that defines exactly how subresources and scripts are turned off. Any other implementors agree with Mozilla on this? -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
