      color-interpolation="sRGB" xlink:href="url(#gradient)" >
    </linearGradient>

      color-interpolation="linearRGB" xlink:href="url(#gradient)" >
    </linearGradient>

but this code will crash Mozilla!!!

test case

ADOBE SVG Viewer 3 render this graphics uncorrectly too!!! (KSVG works good.)

The crash was fixed in bug 307742. However, with a patched FF the gradient
doesn't show on the second and third rect for some reason so leaving this open
for now.

[Scooter Morris]

This bug should be marked CLOSED.  The reason the second and third gradients
don't show is that the example uses "url(#gradient)" as an XLINK target.  While
the "url()" syntax is supported for SVG attributes, its not supported by
xlink:href.  Change the example to xlink:href="#gradient" and the example
renders as expected.

[Jonathan Watt [:jwatt]]

Oh, quite right. I should have noticed that. Marking invalid then.
