After having success with every browser (but IE) on Windows, here's my
test results with the same browsers on Linux:
SeaMonkey 1.1.16 - all 3 worked
Firefox - Embed and Iframe work, but Object does not
Konqueror 4.2.4 - all 3 worked
Opera 10 beta - Embed and Iframe work, but Object does not.
I think the reason why Opera and FF do not work in "Object" mode is
because the example on the w3schools website is wrong. They use the
"codebase" attribute as the "download location for the plug-in" but
the HTML specs say "This attribute specifies the base path used to
resolve relative URIs specified by the classid, data, and archive
attributes." So, in other words, FF and Opera are trying to load
"http://www.adobe.com/svg/viewer/install/rect1.svg" which does not
exist, resulting in no blue rectangle. I'd be willing to bet both of
these browsers would work with an Object-tag-embed SVG given a
properly-formed example.
