Hi Ian, > From: Ian Hickson > Sent: December 8, 2005 6:38 PM > SVG 1.2 defines the 'fill' and 'stroke' properties as taking > the values defined as <paint>. One of the possible values is > <iri>. The definition says that if the IRI reference is not > valid, it must be considered as unsupported and processed as > if it hadn't been specified. > > However, properties are conceptually always specified. > Please correct the specification so that unsupported values > of <paint> have implementable handling, e.g. requiring that > unsupported values be treated as 'black'. Unfortunately, we cannot correct the specification in this fashion as it would contradict the CSS spec on unsupported values [1]. We have, however, made some changes to the spec to use similar wording as the CSS spec - i.e., that unsupported values are ignored. Please let us know, within 2 weeks, if this does not address your concern.
