Web viewer and SVG format

ericire Nov 24, 2010 6:40 AM

Summary

Product

FileMaker Pro

Version

11A

Operating system version

windows 7 - 64 bits

Description of the issue

Hello,
I would like to see the image in a web viewer defined as SVG format with

"data:image/xml+svg," & Table::field in WV
when Table::field contained :

stroke:slategray;
stroke-width:2px;"/>

"

This code works in FM10A but not in FM11A.
Is there something changed in the web viewer of FM11A ?
The SVG viewer is installed and I checked that IE opens this code

Hello
I actually understood.
In fact, contrary to FM10, FM11A called IE8 64-bit and as the svg viewer does not work in 64 bit ...
Solution: I installed IE9 beta 64 bit, which is svg compatible, and there ... it works

But why FM does not leave the choice of web browser to use?

Thank you for your post.

FileMaker Pro does not use a default browser in a Web Viewer. FileMaker Pro uses a webkit provided by the OS to access URL's. For Windows, this is Microsoft Internet Explorer. For Mac OS X, this is Apple Safari.

Thank you TSGAL for the precision.
The support of the various formats is not managed in the same way by browsers, that is why I find it's a pity not to be able to choose the Web browser.

Having the same issue on a Win7 64-bit system. I loaded IE9 but I still have the same issue. I even reloaded FM11A and IE9 several times. I can see SVG images in IE9 but the webviewer still comes up empty. What am I missing?

Craig, if you're still looking for a solution, try adding <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" > immediately under the <head> tag of your document.
