ISSUE-2259: Inconsistent use of <uri> symbol

inconsistent-uri-type

Inconsistent use of <uri> symbol

State:
CLOSED
Product:
SVG Full 1.1
Raised by:
Cameron McCormack
Opened on:
2009-04-13
Description:
In SVG 1.1, the <uri> grammar symbol is used in two inconsistent ways. It used as the value of the xlink:href="" attribute, for example, where the attribute is meant to contain just the bare URI. It is also used in the grammar for various properties, such as 'clip-path', where it really needs to have "url(" ")" around it.

Either the property definitions need to be updated to include the "url(" ")" parts explicitly, or <uri> needs to be split into two grammar symbols: one with "url(" ")" and one without.
