This article or section is incomplete and may require expansion and/or cleanup . Please improve the article, or discuss the issue on the talk page .
The following tables compare SVG compatibility and support for a number of layout engines . Please see the individual products' articles for further information. This article is not all-inclusive or necessarily up-to-date. Unless otherwise specified in footnotes, comparisons are based on the stable versions without any add-ons, extensions or external programs.
Explanation of the tables
Engine nomenclature
Rather than the names of web browsers, the names of the underlying engines are used. The browsers that use the various engines are listed below.
Adobe SVG Viewer , Batik , DENG (XML Browser Engine) , eSVG and Renesis are SVG-Plugins .
Values
Values indicate the level of support in the most recent version of the layout engine, or (if a version number is given) in the specified version. Version numbers without any other value indicate the version at which the layout engine first fully supported the feature.
Value
Meaning
Yes
Indicates that the layout engine fully supports this property when valid values are used.
No
Indicates that this property is completely ignored.
Partial
Indicates that the property is understood, but that not all values are supported. Supported values are implemented correctly.
Incorrect
Indicates that the property is understood, but that it is not implemented correctly in all cases.
Experimental
Indicates that the property is provided in experimental form under an alternative name, generally with only partial functionality.
SVG version support
Note: Trident , Tasman and iCab (before version 4) do not support SVG natively, but requires third-party plugins, thus are not listed.
Gecko general overview notes
SVG — Firefox 1.5 and 2.0 support a subset of SVG 1.1.[ 1] [ 2]
KHTML general overview notes
KHTML — Does not have any native image support. This is by design: in Konqueror , multimedia files are handled by KParts . The KDE project also developed an SVG plugin for Konqueror, known as KSVG .[ 3]
Presto general overview notes
SVG Basic — Presto 9.0 has added quite large, but incomplete SVGB support.
SVG 1.1 support
