Subject: [xsl] When are <!DOCTYPE> and svg namespace references material? From: "Ylvisaker, Steve" <steve.j.ylvisaker@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 3 Feb 2010 11:57:36 -0600 |
There is a concern that our SVG graphics implementation may be introducing external reference dependencies outside our local network. An example graphic is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px" width="357.553px" height="216.893px" viewBox="0 0 357.553 216.893" enable-background="new 0 0 357.553 216.893" xml:space="preserve"> Our graphics are, for the most part, generated by Adobe Illustrator CS3 but we are running xslt transformations against them with Saxon and viewing the graphics with a variety of tools: Firefox, InkScape, Ai CS3, Antenna House formatter and Saxon-PE 9.2.0.2 I have isolated my work station (no corporate network or internet) and all of these applications work fine. But I don't know if they are trying to make an external reference, failing and driving on, or if the <!DOCTYPE> and W3 name space references are little more than documentation. Three of the applications, Firefox, InkScape and Adobe CS3 care about the name of the xmlns URL. Something other than www.w3.org trips them up. Antenna House and Saxon don't seem to care. With the <!DOCTYPE> declaration I can reference www.w3.org as above, or reference an internal network URL or drop the declaration all together and none of the applications perform differently. All of this is, of course, anecdotal data at best. It would be great to know for sure what is going on. My question: Is there ever an attempt to make an external reference to www.w3.org from either the <!DOCTYPE> declaration or the xmlns reference?
