Details

the embedded SVG is visible, but doesn't animate and gets scrambled onScroll.
when one clicks on the links to the linked SVG-files, NN6 says "unknown 
file-type"
I'm using the adobe SVGviewer-plugIn, and with NN4.7 everything works well.
*** Bug 42232 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Confirming bug and providing exact steps how to install the plugin and 
reproducing the problem.

1. Download the plugin from the Adobe Site
2. Close all browsers
3. Install the plugin
4. Open Netscape and see how the URL above is supposed to work
5. Open Mozilla and check out the URL again, try clicking the links to the full 
screen animations.

Actual results:
Mozilla does display the embedded PlugIn correctly, but if you click a link to 
other .svg-files, it displays a 'unknown file type'.

Expected results:
If you click a link to a .svg-file it should open the animation full screen 
using the plugin application.

Additional comments:
The scrambling of the embedded plugin contents must have happened because of the 
math Mozilla does, when you use the PlugIn the first time/click an .svg file. 
This makes the plugin freeze for a while and giving a HOM effect (Hall Of 
Mirrors).

For me, the javascript window opens up but the contents are not visible. I get a 
'dll not found' error message box. Used build:2000072408. Tobias says he still 
gets the 'unknown file type' message.
I see it working fine on my two days old build. Shrirang you will need three 
files in the Plugins folder: npswgvw.dll, swgview.dll, svgviewer.zip.
Yes..thanks for the tip,Andrei. This is working (2000072508).VERIFIED
