that page directly loads svg, and not using plugin markup.

Doron, if you have a chance, could you expand on that a bit, for the benefit of future QA, and also, are you sure, and sure that our behavior is what we want? View source says the page is using <object data="../images/gf4.svg" type="image/svg+xml" width="100" height="75">Your Browser can not display the SVG-Graphic</object>, which seems to be what every tutorial I saw says to use for <object>. Whether or not we support that, what I see in 1.0 without an SVG plugin is that on first load, the pfs infobar comes up, and clicking the "Install Missing Plugins..." button just makes it disappear. Reload the page, the infobar comes up again, and clicking the button again brings up the plugin wizard, which just permanently hangs saying it's checking for plugins but doing nothing after a second of network activity. With the first page of the W3C test suite at http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20030813/htmlframe/full-animate-elem-02-t.html which uses <embed> (with no type or pluginspage attribute) instead, I see exactly the same thing.

actually, I probably misread that testcase. However, filing bugs to add support for plugins is also invalid, I have no idea what the process is to add more plugins to the pfs backend. reopening.

Split off bug 273978 for the pfs wizard hang, which actually happens with any "+" in the mime type.

Here another Adobe SVG plugin that breaks the Plugin Finder: http://www.adobe.com/svg/overview/interactive.html (Click on the Chart demo) Most likely the same issue. Here are some warnings/errors I am seeing in the JavaScript Console when I invoke the Finder: Warning: redeclaration of var child Source File: chrome://mozapps/content/plugins/pluginInstallerDatasource.js Line: 66, Column: 12 Source Code: var child = children.getNext(); Warning: trailing comma is not legal in ECMA-262 object initializers Source File: chrome://mozapps/content/plugins/pluginInstallerDatasource.js Line: 104 Source Code: }; Error: aPluginInfo has no properties Source File: chrome://mozapps/content/plugins/pluginInstallerWizard.js Line: 102

We have native SVG support in Firefox 1.5. Comment 8 is another issue, mainly that Adobe doesn't have their server configured to send "Content-Encoding: gzip" for svgz files.
