ensure ASV is intstalled, perhaps for another browser. /Library/Internet Plug-Ins various issues arise such as: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25148 parity Opera & Mozilla which for this testcase at least do not use ASV to display
I don't think this is a bug. If you install a plugin, you suffer the consequences. ;) We could just entirely refuse to load ASV. Maybe we should...
I think we should refuse to load it. At this point it serves no purpose but to cause confusion.
Ok. We should refuse to load any version 6.x and below. And maybe if Apple/Google has some Adobe contact we should tell them that we're doing that. :) I suspect we already have an NPAPI plugin blacklist somewhere.
to be clear, I installed asv for internet explorer only... (I use different browsers, not only for testing, but because their quirks are still a real pain.) this seems perfectly reasonable, and I can see no obvious workaround. why not raise an advice dialogue for asv6 if there is a need to use it?

If Adobe was interested in us continuing to load this plug-in then I'm sure they would have updated it since then. > I suspect we already have an NPAPI plugin blacklist somewhere. A better solution would be to prevent any plug-in from claiming the SVG MIME type, in a similar fashion to how we prevent plug-ins from claiming HTML.

Generally speaking, any semi-mainstream site using SVG would necessarily standardize on Adobe SVG regardless of its age or other qualities, because that's the only way to get SVG in IE, as far as I know.

No, there's Renesis nowadays, which can be used to get SVG in IE. See http://www.examotion.com/. It's much faster then ASV, in all aspects. I don't know if it's widely used up until now, though. It's relatively new. Have a nice day, Niko
