Also see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2003Mar/thread.html#26 eg the last paragraphs of http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2003Mar/0034.html When using the old version of the DTD (eg before the fix), we had to declare it manually. > if it does not specify the SVG DTD then it must > provide all > the appropriate namespace specifications (SVG's for example). Yes, all prefixes used must be declared (there must be a namespace name (eg URI) supplied for all namespaces present, thus for each prefix, and for the default namespace if non-null).
