        so I had a look at the page source code:
        <br>
        <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" \
href="http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/5171/diasourcecode.png">http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/5171/diasourcecode.png</a>
  <br>
        in other words, trying to make the page compatible with an old,
        uncompliant
        <br>
        browser makes it fail with Firefox 11.

      Sorry, the page is as old as the now uncompliant Firefox 1.5
      version (IIRC). It was tested at that time and Firefox was the
      only brwoser with native SVG export.
      <br>
      <br>

      &gt; fix this?
      <br>
      Of course I could but I'm not sure if I will. Nowadays other
      browser (e.g. Safari) are able to render the page including the
      SVG - but Firefox is not anymore.

      I can reproduce the problem with FF 14.
      <br>
      <br>
      <blockquote type="cite">P.S.2: Modern Firefoxes support embedding
        svg images as &lt;img&gt; tags (but old
        <br>
        ones don't).

      Which might drop portability with other browsers. A better fix
      might be to just remove the
      <br>
      <br>
      &lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

  <br>
      <br>
      But this has to be tested against other now working brwosers, too.
