I reduced it to this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//CL//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional plus Embed//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/xhtml1-transitional-plus-embed.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>WebKit bug 16070</title> <style type="text/css"> div#vp { background-color: linen; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="vp"> <svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <path id='p2' d='M50 100h200' stroke='brown' fill='none' /> <text stroke='none' fill='red' font-size='20'> <textPath xlink:href='#p2'>Spong</textPath> </text> </svg> </div> </body> </html> Which also doesn't work. It draws a brown line but then doesn't draw any text on it. It should say "Spong" in red letters. Then I had a bright idea. This SVG from the SVG Spec doesn't work either: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/images/text/toap01.svg (see http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/text.html#TextPathElement ) So it looks like any use of textPath doesn't work.

You guys are testing with Safari release - all of the mentioned examples work in trunk. Please clarify, so we can close the bug.

Well, I don't feel that I can clarify any more, but I can verify that the URL now renders acceptably in, er, how do I tell what version of WebKit I am running?, anyway the latest nightly build as of 2 minutes ago. In my defence I would never have knowingly specified the version as "525+". ;)

Hum. I'm actually the one who should be defending... especially since I should know better. I guess I was also too tired @ 6AM to remember that <textPath> was only implemented *after* Safari 3 shipped. Actually, I think it was implemented several months *before* Safari 3 shipped, but on a branch, and that branch was only merged after Safari 3 shipped. Thanks for the bug and reduction drj. Sorry to send you on a wild goose chase reducing.
