I have a page, that includes several SVG files. To synchronize the styling of those SVG files I wanted to create a single stylesheet to hold all styling information.
However, when including the SVG like below, the CSS wont get applied. Anybody having a solution to this or is it just not possible to link to other (CSS) files in an SVG referenced by <img src="..." />?
See the example code below. When loading pic.svg directly in the browser, all styles get applied and one can see a green rectangle. But when opening page.htm all there is to see is a black rectangle. So obviously none of the defined styles was applied.
page.htm
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<img src="pic.svg" style="width: 100px; height: 100px;" />
</body>
</html>
pic.svg
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="styles.css" ?>
<svg version="1.1"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
viewBox="0 0 100 100"
>
<rect x="10" y="10" width="80" height="80" />
</svg>
styles.css
rect {
stroke: black;
fill: green;
}
EDIT
From an answer, that for a short time appeared here, I got this link to the spec and the following citation. In my opinion this states, that the above code should work!
Stand-alone SVG document embedded in an HTML or XML document with the ‘img’, ‘object’ (HTML) or ‘image’ (SVG) elements
[...]
Citing from your link "Style sheets defined anywhere within the referenced SVG document (in style elements or style attributes, or in external style sheets linked with the style sheet processing instruction) apply across the entire SVG document, but do not affect the referencing document (perhaps HTML or XHTML)."
