The good browsers (Firefox, Chrome) do, the ugly (IE) don't. Saving
the schematic and viewing it offline is a b*tch too, you'll need a
separate svg viewer on the "ugly" again ;) (Windows)

PNG works everywhere.

Yeah well then don't use IE, is that simple! The same shit was when IE
didn't support PNG well and you had to use some ActiveX filter to get
transparencies to work. If we don't push them to support it better
they never will. And besides, who cares about IE anyway?

In any case, there is a very cool JQuery Plug-in that can help you
fiddle with the SVG on any browser.

I think this library is awesome for manipulating SVGs on a Browser.

Five years ago, PNG didn't worked well in IE too.

The majority of IE users are using IE8. That's the latest version that
works on XP.

 Then consider SVG.
 Majority of modern browsers support it.

Adobe SVG plugin helps.

I do, too. Now, what? I'm not recommending it, too.
If you want to see quality work, please use quality glasses.
