Default Learn SVG site does not work

Hello,

I would like to inform you that your site does not work. I use the latest Firefox 3.0.3 on Ubuntu Hardy Heron which has native support for svg.

However, first I did not see anything at all, because you apparantly use javascript to insert the svg instead of natively inserting it.

After enabling javascript for your domain, it still will not work, because it wants to view the file with some adobe plugin which I do not have, do not want to install (why should I, I have native SVG support) and does not even work on my platform.

I then looked at your page's source code to see which was the address of the SVG being loaded. However, going to the URL for the first chapter proved to be another disappointment. The webserver serves the SVG with Content-Type text/plain. I even tried saving the file to my hard-disc to be able to view it, however it links to other SVG-files with relative links, which would mean I would have to manually download all files before being able to work with them. This is simply too much work, and probably too complicated for most people wanting to use your site.

I hope you can fix this problem soon so that I can enjoy using your tutorials.

Default Mime type fixed

The mime type was incorrect and has since been fixed. More info about mimetypes and SVG here:
Introduction - SVG 1.1 - 20030114
MIME Type - Svg wiki
https://wiki.mozilla.org/SVG:MIMEType

Please verify from your end that it now works as it should. Thanks.
All the best.
