Question

This is the svg I try to embed:

  <script type="image/svg+xml">
    <svg width="200" height="200"
         style="background-color: #D2B48C; display: block; margin-bottom: 5px;"
         id="embeddedSVG">
      <g id="myGroup" 
         fill="blue" 
         style="font-size: 18px; text-anchor: middle; font-family: serif;">
        <circle id="myCircle"
                cx="100" cy="75" r="50"
                stroke="firebrick"
                stroke-width="3" />
        <text x="100" y="155">Hello World</text>
        <text x="100" y="175">From Embedded SVG!</text>
      </g>
    </svg>
  </script>
  <noscript>
    <h1>Optional fallback content goes here!</h1>
  </noscript>

This works fine in ie6-8, SVGweb does:

<OBJECT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #d2b48c; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 5px; OVERFLOW: hidden" id=embeddedSVG_flash class=embedssvg name=embeddedSVG_flash codeBase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0" classid=clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000 width=200 height=200><PARAM NAME="_cx" VALUE="5291"><PARAM NAME="_cy" VALUE="5291"><PARAM NAME="FlashVars" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="Movie" VALUE="js/svg.swf"><PARAM NAME="Src" VALUE="js/svg.swf"><PARAM NAME="WMode" VALUE="Window"><PARAM NAME="Play" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="Loop" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="Quality" VALUE="High"><PARAM NAME="SAlign" VALUE="LT"><PARAM NAME="Menu" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="Base" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="AllowScriptAccess" VALUE="always"><PARAM NAME="Scale" VALUE="NoScale"><PARAM NAME="DeviceFont" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="EmbedMovie" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="BGColor" VALUE="D2B48C"><PARAM NAME="SWRemote" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="MovieData" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="SeamlessTabbing" VALUE="1"><PARAM NAME="Profile" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="ProfileAddress" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="ProfilePort" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="AllowNetworking" VALUE="all"><PARAM NAME="AllowFullScreen" VALUE="false">
      <embed src="js/svg.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#d2b48c" 
width="200" height="200" id="embeddedSVG_flash" name="embeddedSVG_flash" swLiveConnect="true" allowScriptAccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" FlashVars="uniqueId=embeddedSVG&sourceType=string&clipMode=both&debug=true&svgId=embeddedSVG" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" style="background-color: #d2b48c; display: block; margin-bottom: 5px;overflow: hidden;"
 class="embedssvg"  /></OBJECT><NOSCRIPT></NOSCRIPT>

but when I add jQuery:

<script src="js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

The SVG does not render in ie6-8 (yet it does in chrome, ff, …):

<script type="image/svg+xml">
<svg width="200" height="200" style="background-color: #D2B48C; display: block; margin-bottom: 5px;"              id="embeddedSVG">           
<g id="myGroup" fill="blue" style="font-size: 18px; text-anchor: middle; font-family: serif;">                <circle id="myCircle"  cx="100" cy="75" r="50" stroke="firebrick" stroke-width="3" />           
<text x="100" y="155">Hello World</text>             
<text x="100" y="175">From Embedded SVG!</text>           
</g>         
</svg>
</script>

I would expect SVGweb to work the same way, independent of whether jQuery is loaded or not.
How do I embed the SVG with SVGweb, so that it gets shown in ie6-8, while jQuery is loaded?

EDIT:

I may have found a solution. If I bring in jQuery before SVGweb it will work. Yet in the SVGweb manual it says:

First, you must bring in the svg.js file into your HTML page as the
first script on your page, before all others

Answer 1

Including jQuery before SVGweb resolves the problem (as pointed out in my edit).
