what the heck!! that is so wild, mind blowing, i thought the main difference between raster graphics and vector graphics was the quality but i didn’t think about it too deeply.
i had no idea svg files actually used html code and pretty much could be modified using only text and amazing code woa!!! this opens up the possibility for so many things on linux i think.
for example, on a linux distro, we could modify the desktop environment and make it waaaaay lighter by getting rid of jpg or png icons and just using pure svg on it.
svg can be given a lot of attributes like movement, mouse hovering, change color, change anything. and most svg files are still under a megabyte. wow… please let me know other fun facts about svg or eps files. i really like doing graphic design on linux and inkscape.
More precisely, both are flavors of XML.
technically HTML is not XML… XHTML is, but HTML can be invalid XML.
Ok—to the extent that SVG is HTML, the variant of HTML that it is is a flavor of XML.
It annoys me that you aren’t supposed to close input tags. At least browsers tolerate self closing them even if it is out of spec.
HTML predates XML by several years.
Age doesn’t matter. XML is a super-set of XHTML’s spec.
That is - all XHTML is valid XML but not all XML is valid XHTML.
Note I’m saying XHTML not HTML since the later need not be valid XML.
That’s a weird way of saying XHTML is an application of XML.
You can phrase it however you like?

No
No what?
