In SVG 1.0, SVG1.1 (first edition) and SVG tiny 1.2 it is black - I think, there was never another initial value. Right from the beginning one expects a black fill due to specifications, if there is no other value applicable. Up to now, the backwards compatibility of SVG specifications is pretty good, what might change with the current efforts concerning SVG 2. I think, in some versions of Gecko there is additionally a bug, that everything turns into black, if CSS interpretation is switched off for documents having only presentation attributes and no CSS at all - such bugs are really an indication, that SVG interpretation in browsers is not ready for use yet ;o) Could the model of fill and stroke be useful for the box-model of CSS as well? Instead or additionally to that of borders and outlines? Olaf
