Description Jeff Schiller 2009-10-15 08:01:41 PDT 
The HTML5 specification describes a syntax for SVG-in-HTML5:

http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-canvas-element.html#svg-0
http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/embedded-content-0.html#embedded-content
etc

Firefox has a HTML5 parser that is disabled by default, but will presumably be enabled by default in the future: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=373864

If you take this HTML5 test http://gk.lka.hu/old2/html5/ it fails in Webkit for the SVG test (no green circle). But you see a green circle if you take the same test with Firefox 3.7a3 (and html5 enabled).

Looks like IE9 will support this as well. See <http://ie.microsoft.com/testdrive/info/ReleaseNotes/Default.html#WPGN>
