[Holger Will]

can you please attach a sample SVG file, without the svg source, its hard to
track down the problem.

Comment 2

Attachment: sample svg file

This sample svg file exhibits the described bug. It usually gets traffic
information constantly from the router using javascript and animates the
traffic graph accordingly, but the rendering bug also occurs when there is no
data source available.

From a cursory look there are a number of issues with that file. For a start it
uses ASV extensions such as some non-standard getters instead of properties, and
the getURL function. For example

  evt.getTarget().getOwnerDocument();

should be

  evt.target.ownerDocument;

and getURL would need to be replaced with the more widely supported
XMLHttpRequest. There are most likely other issues. Perhaps you could send an
email to the developers of m0n0wall and encourage them to download Mozilla
Firefox 1.5 beta 1 and get their SVG working in Moz by making it conform to the
standard a bit better? Feel free to CC me, and I will try to help out with any
problems they encounter if needs be.

Content is not actually SVG, and all of it seems to be 404 in any case....

I submitted a patch to m0n0wall, so the SVG in the next version (after version 1.2) should work in moz.
