But getting SVG to work nice and smooth with web pages is something I have yet to see. *sigh*
If anyone knows how to get an SVG to work as a background that stretches and adjusts as least as
well as my examples, I'd love to see it. Only once have I seen an SVG that actually scales on a web
page, and it still didn't work very well.
