(This one works in Safari)
Also broken in the newest Safari Tech Preview (WebKit 13605.1.18.2), just a black circle there. The problem here is WebKit still supports the "xlink" namespace and expects the "href" attribute to be prefixed by it. SVG 2 dropped the "xlink" namespace. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/xlink:href. WebKit has not dropped it yet. So get all the test cases working in WebKit, all the href attributes should be replaced by xlink:href. Thank you, I could kick myself for this. I knew about this now-unique characteristic of Webkit but I totally forgot about it and none of the checkers and HTML5 validators pointed it out to me since they are already targeting SVG2 in that regard (which is also good for since I am also already using SVG2-specific attributes in another instance). I would have closed this issue now but judging from the new title I guess the intention is on giving this bug a new raison d'être as a bug tracking WebKit catching up with the rest of the browser gang in that regard. Fine with me. This is fixed by https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153854. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 153854 *** |
Created attachment 330453 [details] <pattern> with nested <use> Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open all three test cases. What is the expected behavior? In each case there should be a <circle> filled with an argyle <pattern>. What went wrong? The two cases where <use> inside <pattern> is used do not work in Safari (and probably other Webkit browsers). Does this work in other browsers? Works in current versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge.
