Well, I got rails to render my inline SVG code in an rhtml file (parsed by ERb) in Firefox using the rest pattern. I thought all of this would work without the "after_filter" but for some reason, without it it doesn''t work. I have no idea why its needed! Can anyone explain? Here''s how I got it to work...: Environment.rb: Add the following: Mime::Type.register "application/xhtml+xml", :svg location_controller.rb (Or whatever your restful controller is!) def index @locations = Location.find(:all) respond_to do |format| format.html # index.rhtml format.xml { render :xml => @locations.to_xml } format.svg { render :action => "svg.rhtml", :layout => false } end end also add: after_filter :set_content_type def set_content_type if ( @request.env[''HTTP_ACCEPT''].match(/application\/xhtml\+xml/)) @headers[''Content-Type''] = "application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8" end end Now create a file called svg.rhml in your views folder and paste the following: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <head> <title>SVG within XHTML Demo</title> </head> <body> <p> You can embed SVG into XHTML, provided that your browser natively implements SVG. E.g. Firefox 1.5 supports most of static SVG. </p> The SVG part starts below <hr /> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" width="400" height="300"> <!-- un petit rectangle avec des coins arroundis --> <rect x="50" y="50" rx="5" ry="5" width="300" height="100" style="fill:#CCCCFF;stroke:#000099"/> <!-- un texte au meme endroit --> <text x="55" y="90" style="stroke:#000099;fill:#000099;font-size:24;"> HELLO cher visiteur </text> </svg> <hr /> The SVG part ended above </body> </html> Voila! It works.. Now why do I need the before filter!
