As much as I am usually sceptical of XML, a markup language for vector graphics is a damn awesome thing. Too bad IE (at least 6) doesn't support it... not that I use it anyway.

So, I had a go at it, and...



source: 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
 
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
 width="300" height="100">
  <rect x="10" y="10" width="280" height="80" rx="1"
      style="fill:#000000; stroke:#000000;stroke-width:0;fill-opacity:0.7" />
  <text
       style="font-size:10px;text-anchor:start;color:#10ff30;fill:#10ff30;stroke:none;stroke-width:1;font-family:Lucida Console"
       id="text34"
       x="20"
       y="25">
      <tspan
         id="tspan36">C:\> console fakes are fun</tspan>

  </text>
  <text
       style="font-size:10px;text-anchor:start;color:#10ff30;fill:#10ff30;stroke:none;stroke-width:1;font-family:Lucida Console"
       id="text34"
       x="20"
       y="40">
      <tspan
         id="tspan36">also, here's a circle:</tspan>
  </text>
  <circle
	cx="50"
	cy="65"
	r="18"
	style="stroke:#5070FF;stroke-width:2px;fill:none" />
 
</svg>

(disregard the excessive formatting, I copied some tags from a Wikipedia SVG )

I positively think this is an awesome format and there should be more lobbying for its popularization.

Discuss.

My post layout breaks in IE too, thanks to the transparency

Bah, SVG.

The one format I could never make and never will get used to.



I wonder if you can use data: for SVG images?

EDIT: Testing using bh89's svg converted to b64



And woot. No uploading SVG files to a random server just so I can show off random crap for ME

EDIT2: Christ that took forever. What's this damned problem with extra space though? (fixed)

EDIT3: whoo, mega-huge dizzifying spiral (too lazy to make it actually exist on the top of the svg )

What do you use for base64-encoding that stuff? =o

I use this online tool, it does the job quite nicely. You have to manually remove linebreaks though...

So you could decode the base64 data I used, and you'd have an SVG file again.

It's like a zipfile. Except you can compress it multiple times.

An idea comes into my mind... 

[svg width=800 height=800]<some svg commands here>[/svg]


How about it?

That's actually a damn good idea, considering what you can do with SVG. I think I read something about being able to animate them...?

(By the way, are you just using CSS to customize the <pre> tag in your layout, or is there more than just a pre tag at work? I wanna make a few changes in my layout when I get it moved over here)

There's no <pre> tag in my layout; what I am using for the monospaced text is [code]..[/code].

Yes, but doesn't the [code] tag create a pre inside a table? I just wanna know so I don't have to go arrrrgh when I reconfigure my layout



EDIT: Meh, who cares. :\
