Last I checked, XHTML/CSS handle dynamic resolutions just fine...
Bahumbug. You need to check again. I run at 1600x1200 at 98 DPI and I can say with certainty that pages that are designed to fill the entire width of the page start to become unreadable when the font is 11pt. That means that lines are REALLY long and it becomes hard to follow line-by-line. Resolution isn't just width and height. On a good platform (X11 and Mac OSX) it also means the DPI of the monitor. And that's to say nothing of the printing issues that are created by virtue of printing being done at 600 DPI or more while screens are in the lowly range of 75 - 110 DPI. The nasty differences are apparent when you try to print off a map from a web page and it becomes less readable.
What /should/ happen is that web pages should become /sharper/ and /easier to read/ when more pixels are available; not smaller and harder to read.
Why did you even reply to this message? Are you going to make the claim that SVG has nothing to offer? Just trying to pick a fight for no good reason?
Using Konqueror 3.5-subversion here and all I see is text...
So you didn't even try it? Check your KSVG plugin by trying to click on an SVG file in your local file system from Konqueror; it should open up in Konqueror. Otherwise file a bug against 3.5 RC1.
