I have a testcase set up at http://freemen.be/examples/svg-stack.html that's a basic html page whose body has just an img tag with src="icons.svg#first" problem is that the requested icon is not showing The icon is shown correctly if I load it directly through http://freemen.be/examples/icons.svg#first
did some further testing, and compared with the other major browsers. result of the test can be found at http://freemen.be/examples/svg-stack-overview.html tested with chrome on windows and linux, safari on windows, and rekonq on linux (all using webkit engine obviously and all showing the problem)
As http://freemen.be/examples/svg-stack-overview.html shows the problem: - applies when loading an svg-stack image as css-background or with an <img> - loading the same svg-image with an <embed> or <object> tag works fine https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100269 and https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65344 seem to indicate that the problem is with the application of the css embedded in the svg https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91790 is a duplicate of this bug with regards to loading the image as an css-background https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89985 also seems to be a duplicate/related
Test as working as of Chrome 36
