Inside my website, I am embeding a few svgs. They all seem to work just fine in Chrome, Firefox, IE(9+) and in Safari. Howvere as soon as there is image included in the svg, safari does not render the image.
Based on the previous similar topic I have tried the following:
SVG <image> elements not displaying in Safari - enclosing
<use>
tag like this <use></use>
SVG Image dosen't appear in Safari - I dont find this very usefull,cause this is deleting aprt of the svg.
Not able to render SVG image in Safari - Added
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml"> in header.
And beyond that, I dont really know what else to try. Maybe one more interesting thing to note is that inside my page, image is not displayed, but I can open svg file in safari(just the file) and it will be renderd correctly. Further more, after it's opened in the browser as a file, it renders inside the page as well. And I embed the svg to the page with img tag.
<img src="mysvg.svg" class="center-block"/>
This is my svg:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I have reduced base64 image string, to shorten the code. Full svg can be found here.
UPDATE: Just to be clear, svg shows in the browser(safari) but image is missing (I can see just border).
It looks like this WebKit bug is responsible for the problem: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99677
The workaround we use in our application is to have a script which finds all img elements displaying SVG images and add hidden object elements loading the same SVGs (<object style="position: fixed; width: 0; height: 0;" data="image.svg" type="image/svg+xml"></object>).
The reason it works is that the object tag properly loads the embedded images into the image cache, so that they are visible within the SVGs loaded using the img tags.
The advantage of this approach is that the images are still displayed using the img tag, so that the workaround can be applied (and later removed cleanly when the browsers are eventually patched) without affecting the rest of the application/website.
The disadvantage is the creation of an extra object tag for each SVG image.
This solution works for me when displaying an embedded SVG image in Safari.
replace
<img src="image.svg">
with
<object data="image.svg" type="image/svg+xml"></object>
It seems that answer from this question works: What could make Safari skip clip-path AND mask with SVG?. See instructions in link from answer.
You have to recreate your clip path to make it visible. And </clippath> tag is not pushed after </image> tag.
Here is the little changed code (link to my image inserted so you will have to change it):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

So Anto Jurković pointed out, there are some known issues with Safari and clipPath. What Safari likes is if you dont define polygon but put it straight in to clippPath. Also you must then group clipPath separately.
But I still could not get svg to render the image if I used img tag for svg - <img src="svg"/>. So at the end I have embeded it like this:
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
width="328px" height="328px" viewBox="0 0 328 328" enable-background="new 0 0 328 328" xml:space="preserve">
<g>
<clipPath id="SVGID_2_">
<polygon id="SVGID_1_" points="1.414,164.001 164,326.586 326.586,164.001 164,1.414 "/>
</clipPath>
</g>
<image clip-path="url(#SVGID_2_)" overflow="visible" width="338" height="532" id="DSC_x5F_0112-2" xlink:href="data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/.....r/fdeaS//9k=">
</image>
<g>
<path fill="#FFFFFF" d="M164,328.001L0,164.002L164,0.001l164,164.001L164,328.001z M1.414,164.002L164,326.587l162.586-162.585
L164,1.415L1.414,164.002z"/>
</g>
</svg>
I can confirm that this renders correctly in mobile safari(on ipad and iphone, windows safari and mac safari - latest versions).
So to sum it up...I have this svgs in separate html file and render them when needed.
I ran into this problem where I was using Ajax to load the svg spritesheet onto the page. If I had a on the page before the spritesheet was loaded, it would fail and would not resolve once the spritesheet was avaialble. Any added to the dom after the spritesheet was loaded were fine. I had to delay putting the items in the dom until after the spritesheet finished loading.
This only affected IOS. All other browsers didn't care about the order.
