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.

[edit] Explanation of the tables

[edit] 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.

Layout Engine Used By
Trident (also known as MSHTML) Internet Explorer 4 to Internet Explorer 8
Tasman Internet Explorer for Mac; MSN for Mac OS X
Gecko All Mozilla software, including Firefox; Galeon; Flock; also Epiphany
WebKit Safari; Shiira; iCab 4; Epiphany; Adobe Air; Google Chrome; Midori; OmniWeb; Adobe Dreamweaver CS4;
KHTML Konqueror
Presto Opera; Nintendo DS Browser; Internet Channel; future Adobe Systems products
iCab iCab 1-3
Prince XML Prince XML
Amaya Amaya

Adobe SVG Viewer, Batik, DENG (XML Browser Engine), eSVG and Renesis are SVG-Plugins.

[edit] 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.

[edit] 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.

[edit] Gecko general overview notes

  1. SVG — Firefox 1.5 and 2.0 support a subset of SVG 1.1.[1] Firefox 3 support many more features.[2]

[edit] KHTML general overview notes

  1. 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]

[edit] Presto general overview notes

  1. SVG Basic — Presto 9.0 has added quite large, but incomplete SVGB support.

[edit] embedding

This tables show the support of SVG images embedded in Homepages.

[edit] Renesis notes

  1. font-face — Renesis 0.7 supports that feature, but because of the rewrite of the plugin Renesis 1.0 doesn't support this any longer.
