-----Original Message----- From: Cameron McCormack To: www-svg@w3.org Subject: some HTML elements in SVG documents I did some very quick testing to see whether various metadata-ish HTML elements (in the HTML namespace) work in SVG documents. I tested title, base, link, meta, style and script. title: doesn’t have any effect http://mcc.id.au/temp/title.svg base: affects <a xlink:href>, at least, in Firefox/Chrome/Safari but not in Edge http://mcc.id.au/temp/title.svg link: allows style sheet loading across Firefox/Chrome/Safari/Edge http://mcc.id.au/temp/link.svg meta: allows page refresh across Firefox/Chrome/Safari/Edge http://mcc.id.au/temp/meta.svg style: works across Firefox/Chrome/Safari/Edge http://mcc.id.au/temp/style.svg script: works across Firefox/Chrome/Safari/Edge http://mcc.id.au/temp/script.svg I added a small section to the spec, which needs fleshing out: https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/struct.html#HTMLMetadataElements ----------------------- Hi Cameron, I think the one HTML element that has had the most historic traction/interest/request frequency for the past 15 years has been <textarea> / <textArea>. Had it been implemented sooner, then we would be deprecating HTML in lieu of SVG! Regards David
