Firefox, SVG, text-decoration

Question

Consider the following snippet of code:

<text style="text-decoration:underline;"> Underline </text>

It renders properly for me in both the latest version of Chrome & Safari; however, it fails in the latest version of Firefox.

Question:

• if text-decoration not part of the SVG standard?

or

• does Firefox not support the entirety of SVG?

and lastly:

• how do I get underline / strike through / over line in firefox SVG text given the above?

Thanks!

EDIT

Hmm, does https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317196 confirm that Firefox, in 2012, does not support SVG underline? :-)

Answer 1

The bug you linked to is it.

And no one supports "the entirety of SVG" (at least of SVG 1.1). Chances are, no one ever will.
