Description
Some elements, namely
<cursor>
,<filter>
,<font-face-uri>
,<glyphRef>
, and<tref>
only work withxlink:href
, and nothref
.The example was incorrectly using
href
which clients, including ones that support SVG 2, will not render. I tested this in Eye of GNOME (GNOME's default image viewer.)Motivation
The SVG will now render correctly in viewers.
Additional details
Compare the list of nodes that support XLink's href to the SVG 2 href:
Nodes that are deprecated/removed in SVG 2 do not support the SVG 2
href
attribute, soxlink:href
must still be used.I was investigating this following this comment in SVGO:
