Another cool feature with svg: you can use media-queries inside the. Hi @eqroeil, your posted comment addresses what I’ve been trying to figure out – how to make SVG work in responsive design.

No one is addressing this.Here’s my codepen:On the left is #ALA art – the paint brush. Next is my logo and then a second version of the paint brush. The 2nd version and the logo both have width and height removed, only veiwBox and “preserveAspectRatio=”xMinYMin meet”. These scale with the container but they break the object box.

Why why why?I have been searching for the right solution. Your example works. I will be pulling it apart today to understand why!

Any comments would be most appreciated. I’ve been trying to use SVG images as a background image on responsive div’s:div class='span4'but unlike an img I cannot use width='100%' which will automatically scale it, and despite my div resizing as the browser window changes size, the background svg dimensions will stay the same. This is not really specific to SVG’s as it happens with PNG’s/JPG’s too but something you need to keep in mind.Not a problem in modern browsers, but your usual suspects (IE 8 and lower and possibly IE9) have trouble with this. Good to get more info on fallbacks for SVG.

I’ll have to get to work on them for my websites.My last two designs have included nothing but SVGs in the main layout with background textures, header images, logos and other elements being nothing but SVG. They look awesome on a Retina display! What I have noticed however is that the graphics do tend to look slightly different across browsers. On Storiva.com for example, It appears that Fireworks is correctly interpreting some of my gradients in the header background as an ellipse gradient, whereas in Chrome and Safari, they appear to be interpreted as radial gradients, resulting in slightly less vivid colors.

I thought that was rather interesting, but definitely not a deal breaker.Anyway, thanks for such a thorough review Chris! Much appreciated. I had an issue with svg in ie10 (and possibly 9) recently.I was building a site that had a svg logo in header and footer. In the header (which as position: fixed) I used a div tag with the svg as background, and in the footer I used it as a img tag. The background in the a tag is used in the original size, while the img tag is a little smaller for design purposes.The issue is that sometimes explorer moves and crops the background in the header when another element with the same svg file as source is set at a different size. This problem is happening in ie10 but I think it happens in ie9 as well.I’ve made a fiddle in:(I have also made a pen at but most of the time the error doesn’t show until you resize the window).I solved it in this specific case, however I don’t know if this is an ie bug or I missed something.

Other browsers seems to work fine. This was my first idea when I read article. Why not use simple cascading rules to achieve this fallback?

I decided to look further at this and I can tell you why this is wrong. I am 100% that in almost every browser (actually on every I tested, and I tested on lot) will load ONLY one image.

This was my first WOW. But could this be so simple? Answer is NO.

As only one image is loaded there is no fallback. If.svg will not load (becasue is not supported for example) then nothing will load.

That situation appear for example in IE8.Regards.Dawid. Chris, please mention this important SVG issue with Firefox:In Firefox, SVG used as a css background-img is bitmapped at its original designed dimensions, before it is scaled up or down. This results in very blurry images when upscaling a small SVG.

Some suggest to simple use a gigantic SVG so you never upscale, only downscale. But I have seen horrible performance when you use a huge SVG and downscale (though that when the element was 3d transformed and animated).Kinda funny that this implementation of SVG isn’t S or VCheck this page in FF, it shows the bug well(bugzilla is under maintenance, but this might be the bug, I can’t check now)Workaround is the above mentioned other options, like inline SVG.Firefox for many many versions has not fixed that bug. As a result, I don’t think SVG as a CSS background is a good option at the moment.

Which is sad because background-cover and centering makes it such an attractive option. +1I’m using the Raphael library to handle SVG graphics on one of our sites. I understand it uses VML on IE platforms that don’t support SVG.I use it for custom charts, which were previously drawn using a graphics library on the server and streamed as images to the browser. Doing it with SVG has allowed me to interact with the charts in Javascript, for example I can highlight a plot on the chart when the user hovers over a name in the legend.The Raphael commands are embedded in the HTML, which makes the page size a bit larger than before, but it hasn’t affected page performance noticeably and the pages are now served with a single HTTP request instead of several. Hello!in our app for android made with html5 +backbone + phonegap we decided to use svg for some illustration.

This decision is giving me now some really hard times. The svg i’m trying to embed are not basic svg.I managed to add the dropshadow as a filter directly into the svg. The cool thing is that it renders well into any of the browser I used in the android device.

But when you open the app created from the same html5 with phonegap and run into the same device the dropshadow filter is not rendered. I’m using for testing a HTC one X with the latest android distribution.Does anyone has an idea why phonegap seems to strip filters from the svg?

I’ve tried to look on the web for this issue but got no clueyetthanksMike. Replace:svg width=”640″ height=”480″ version=”1.1″ baseProfile=”full” xmlns=”xmlns:xlink=”xmlns:ev=”xmlns=”xmlns:xlink=”x=”0px” y=”0px”viewBox=”0 0 640 480″ enable-background=”new 0 0 640 480″ xml:space=”preserve”And it should work just fine. I’ve experienced scaling problems with using width and height attributes in svg, and never seem to have problems just eliminating them. I can’t seem to replicate the problems that seowarp.com experienced by omitting the height and width attributes.

I’ve used.svg images very extensively on several sites (Responsively resizing with rem) and they all have the proper aspect ratio in cross-browser testing. Whenever I’ve noticed an image with a bad aspect ratio, it always has a height and width in the.svg code I forgot to delete. I always define height and width with CSS and omit them from the.svg itself; I noticed that you’ve only defined width on your site.I’m certainly not an expert curious what the actual right way to do this is.What do the other tricksters think? Hi, thank you for this useful guide. Based on this guide I have made world flags rendered only by CSS:. Of course it has pros and cons.

And the CSS can be improved (it is just experimental).One thing, I have discovered, not sure if this is valid for all file sizes, but the base64 encoding is much larger then pure SVG code.Unfortunately, Internet Explorer does not support raw SVG code in background attribute, so this is the only one reason why to encode SVG code, I think (maybe I am wrong). The same with uri encoding, the output is smaller than base64 but for Firefox you need to change this character: “#” and of course in Internet Explorer it does not work either.Anyway thank you again for this guide.Jan. Great (inspiring) article. I’ve now been using svgs on my and clients’ sites for several years. I even converted my logo to an svg — the language seems straightforward enough. One last puzzle for me is the danged css.

I have a gradient background, currently set in “html” along with “min-height:100%”. This seems to ensure the gradient proceeds on down the viewport even on pages whose content is very brief. (Like one-liners.) However, the gradient gets stretched to the full length of the content instead of the viewport for longer pages. How consistently (device-agnostic) to fill the viewport? How do you do a fill change on:hover when your svg icon is like a ‘hollow’ box? Once I’m inside the box, and not technically on the thin svg, I lose the hover. I tried doing a display:block on a parent div and putting the over on that.

It seems I can’t override anything in the xml loaded stylesheet via an external one.I hope that makes sense. I’m trying to work with an envelope icon made up of very thin lines. The inside of the envelope is transparent. Unless I’m on the thin lines, I loose the hover. I used the object route for the.svg – it worked great in some ways the fall back.png worked. My.svg tho viewed online as a box in the correct size but it had the.txt file code in it??

I did make my.svg in ILL cs3 and used DW cs3 to html and upload I tried it every way even your other opts and still – I think it works but my.svg shows as text code in image area with scrolls I even tried all the different opts when saving.svg found on various sites hmmm can u help? Has anyone had this what I am sure is a minor happen before Do I need to use the cloud or cs5 or higher My site is HTML 5 and reponsive I am baffled. It was my first attempt as I want all my vectors to be.svg so they scale and look awesome!

Thank you for this article, it’s very well written and informative, but I have a question. When I save my svg from Illustrator, my code isn’t picking up the size of my artboard (the height and width don’t show in the markup) and my image is not responsive. From the article, it seems that this should be the default behavior. I’m using Adobe CC, so it should be the most up-to-date. Is there a setting I need to make in order for the svg to pick up the size of the artboard? Currently, when I open it in the browser, it renders the full height and width, not the settings I gave it. Is there a fix for that?

Great article. I have recently started using SVG’s and found this really useful. I am however wondering if any one can assist me with an issue I am tackling. I have a single SVG logo which uses DEFS and USE for various colours.

I am then including the logo using the method. As the logo is used in two separate areas of the page template I wanted to use CSS to style the SVG fill colour dependent on the objects unique ID. Is this possible to do with CSS? I can do this with script or adding the SVG code directly onto the template, but ideally wanted to use CSS.
