Description Xan Gregg 2006-02-21 15:20:55 UTC
Editorial comment on the LCWD of 2006-02-17

The SVG version of the datatypes diagram in section 3 contains entities, part1
and part2 that contain non-public URLs. Sometimes (FireFox 1.5) this causes the
image to not be rendered ("Unauthorized Access" message instead). Other times
(Safari 2.0) the image renders, but links within it do not work.
Comment 1 C. M. Sperberg-McQueen 2006-03-20 22:48:36 UTC
Thank you for the alert (and sorry to be so slow to react to it).
I believe the error in the SVG has now been repaired in place,
but I note that Firefox 1.5 for Windows and Opera for Windows
still decline to display the graphic (the display of the document
terminates abruptly with the heading for section 3).

So the problem of the non-displayed image remains open, and
at the moment I know neither what its cause is nor how to
find out what its cause is.

I also note in passing that the current method of handling
the hyperlinks in SVG has as a consequence that the graphic
in the diffed versions of the spec points to the corresponding
sections not in the diffed versions of the spec but in the
undiffed version.
Comment 2 C. M. Sperberg-McQueen 2009-03-13 01:00:45 UTC
I believe the problem reported here (private links in the SVG 
in the Datatypes spec) has now been fixed.  

But my setup is such that I found the problem a little hard to
replicate.

Xan, can you check to see whether my belief is well founded or
not?  If so, we can mark it resolved and close it; if not, then
I'll have to try again, harder.

Looks OK to me, too.
