Some of you may remember that some time ago we discussed making websites in Flash. At the time I strongly objected and suggested that some day SVG would be able to handle the resolution independent rendering which Flash offers without all the accessibility problems. Well I'm very excited to share that I think that day has finally arrived (or almost has).
Firefox 1.5 RC1 was released today and with it comes support for SVG. This adds to the list of browsers supporting SVG: Opera and Konqueror which is a total of roughly 13% of the browser market. Add to that the IE Adobe SVG Plugin for IE6 (85%) and the picture starts to look pretty rosy.
The example looks really great. I was pleased to here that Mozilla / Firefox can support SVG now, and since I've been working with XForms, I can see the potential the two together have. I found the following article that some of you might be interesting.

Jason, what did you use to build the svg file you used in the example?
