Onload event in a SVG file created with Inkscape is not fired in Firefox but is in Google Chrome, IE9 or Opera

more options

Hello,

I created a svg file with Inkscape and added some interactivity as on mouse over events, etc. I want some objects to have their visibility set to hidden at the loading of some other objects. I used the tool provided by Inkscape to configure those interactivities.

My issue is that the onload event seems not to be done with firefox as none of my object is hidden.

see my website in google chrome and Firefox to compare: afrenchwebdesigner.fr.cr

Is it a normal behavior of Firefox ? or is Inkscape is using a bad method ? And is there any way to go through this problem ?

I also sent a message to the Inkscape's team without answer yet.

Thank you for your help, Regards.

A good place to ask advice about web development is at the mozillaZine Web Development/Standards Evangelism forum.

The helpers at that forum are more knowledgeable about web development issues.
