Hi,
I have been trying to export SVG images having links to CSS from Org to
HTML
and I have found that the this CSS is not active in Firefox (only
browser I tried).
I have found that the CCS is only active under two conditions:
1. The HTML page should manage the CSS that the SVG image links to.
2. The SVG image should be embedded in the HTML page.
I wrote an ox-html derived export backend to embed SVG images:
https://forge.chapril.org/gav451/emacs.d/src/branch/main/site-lisp/ox-my-html/ox-my-html.el
and merged the SVG embedding functionality into ox-html.el leading to
the
attached patch.
I have included an MWE below and I attached mwe.org and mwe.html with
doc8.svg and style8.svg (showing a flower and chosen for the visual
impact).
You will get an M-non-WE after exporting mwe.org using ox-html on the
main branch.

Subject: [PATCH] ox-html.el: add option to embed SVG for CSS support in SVG
* lisp/ox-html (org-html-embed-svg, org-html-embed-svg-includes,
org-html-embed-html-excludes): add option to enable or disable
SVG embedding in HTML within emacs of file scope. Add options
to specify lists of SVG images to be included in or excluded
from embedding.
(org-html--embed-svg-p): apply the logic to each SVG image.
(org-html-svg-contents): try to return cleaned up SVG contents.
(org-html-link): add embedding SVG images before inlining images.

CCing Timothy, the maintainer.
Also, does the above mean that Firefox does not support custom CSS user
stylesheets? What am I missing?

Thanks! I will provide high-level comments from general ox.el
perspective.

This is awkward. To do per-image export adjustments, we usually use
export attributes (#+ATTR_HTML: ...). And why "split"?

We do not use :version tag. Please use :package-version.
See Elisp manual section "15.1 Common Item Keywords".
Also, maybe instead of t/nil boolean values here, we may allow the value
to be a list of regular expressions or a string representing regular
expression. This will allow what you are trying to do with
HTML_EMBED_SVG_INCLUDES. The list elements might also be (not "..."),
replicating HTML_EMBED_SVG_EXLCUDES.
Even more generally, we may turn this into HTML_EMBED_IMAGES and embed
all the images (possibly filtered by regexp). This will be slightly
beyond the scope of this patch though.

But the original code is different, no?

Hi,
I think there's a better approach. Tl;dr:
- A better way to have active CSS in SVG images is to link to the
external SVG file with the <object> rather than <img> tag, as we used
to.
- Without patching Org, you can embed an external SVG file as an SVG
island in Org HTML export simply by using #+INCLUDE.
Details:
1) Embedded SVG is not the only way to have active CSS etc. in SVG
images. Linking to an external SVG file with an OBJECT element instead
of IMG should work fine (tested in Firefox). You can test this by
exporting Gerard's mwe.org example and editing the mwe.html to replace
: img src="./doc8.svg"
with
: object type="image/svg+xml" data="./doc8.svg"
Org used to use OBJECT for SVG years ago, but switched to IMG at some
point. I'm not quite sure when or why that happened (forgive me for not
doing an exhaustive search of the archive or delving into the git
record). But I think perhaps the reason was this thread,
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2016-07/msg00380.html
where the issue was easy scaling, and that Jarmo Hurri's patch switching
to IMG came to be applied at some point, even though Jarmo and I agreed
that adding a common CLASS="svgfig" attribute to OBJECT would solve his
issue, see this thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2016-07/msg00410.html
I continue to think that OBJECT with an .svgfig class as default (or a
setting to give the user a choice between IMG and OBJECT) is the best
solution.
2) You can actually embed an SVG island in Org HTML export simply by
using #+INCLUDE. To try this, add the following line to Gerard's mwe.org:
: #+INCLUDE: "./doc8.svg" export html
The exported HTML should now show the black flower from Gerard's minimal
non-working example plus a working flower.
(Some SVG files may start with an XML declaration; if the XML
declaration is on a separate first line, you can just skip it by adding
=:lines "2-"= to the #+INCLUDE instruction.)
Yours,
Christian

No, it means that custom CSS inside a linked SVG image is shielded from
the page that has the link to the SVG image.
To me it looks a natural defense against linking to different SVG images
linking to conflicting custom CSS.
If the HTML page linking to those images should manage the conflicting
custom CSS, the creator of the page is responsible for resolving the
conflicts.

I do not think that #+ATTR_HTML allows to embed (= copy) the contents
of an SVG file directly into the HTML page. As far as I understand, it
adds
only attributes to HTML elements.
The "split" is because of similarity with :select_tags and :exclude_tags
in ox.
It allows several files to be included in or excluded from embedding.
I agree that an attribute like #+EMBED_SVG is less awkward.

I think that the terminology "inline-image" in ox-html is confusing.
In ox-html the result of the "inline-image" code is an HTML tag like
<img with attributes inside>
It does not mean that image data is copied inline as with embedding.

Indeed, the flower works, but the caption disappears because Org does
not
recognize the "#+INCLUDE ..." as a link, the caption does not show up in
the
HTML. Is there an easy solution for this issue.

I agree with Ihor's idea concerning #+attr_html (multiple inline images
in a paragraph may be an issue). However notice that some ox options
allows include/exclude lists:
:exclude-tags ("skip")
:with-drawers (not "skip")
A can not add much to the discussions concerning various approaches to
include SVG images. I just faced that some SVG files breaks text

I think that inlining in the sense of ox-html is different from
embedding
as done in the patch. I may be wrong. This is the first point to
settle.
If I am right, I think that #+attr_html is not going to work.

I had been think about names like
:with-svgs-to-embed (...)
:sans-svgs-to-embed (...)
while preparing the patch. I decided to err towards verbosity.
You suggest that
:svgs-to-embed ("yes" "ok")
and
:svgs-to-embed (not "no" "skip")
are possible.
Is it also possible to do
#+EXCLUDE_TAGS: not "no" "skip"
or something similar in an Org file?

I am using Firefox-113.0.2 and the bug is still there: sometimes
I can select all text from the beginning of the first "selecting"
downwards (depends on my touchpad sweep) but never from the
first "Start".

Fair point! No, I don't think there is an easy, non-messy solution that
will make for generating proper figure captions using the Org #+CAPTION
keyword with this approach. The same goes for embedding the SVG in the
Org file itself in a =#+begin_export html= block.
That's obviously a major drawback. So for embedding an external SVG file
as an SVG island in HTML output with proper figure captioning, your
approach is superior to my #+INCLUDE hack.
That said, I still think the better solution to the issue you raised is
for Orgmode to go back to exporting SVG links as <object> not <img>, not
to extract SVG file contents and embed them as SVG islands.
(Though I may be a breaking change for some users. In particular,
because OBJECT does not have an ALT attribute, but uses several other
ways to provide alternative text for accessibility, users would need to
change their =#+attr_html :alt= to using :aria-label or :title
attributes, unless the Org implementation for SVG links were to handle
this smartly.)
Yours,
Christian

Reading the linked threads, it seems that <object> has its own
downsides. Why is it strictly better then?

To be clear, I am in favor of adding "embedding" switch for ox-html in
general. It is a feature several people requested elsewhere - for all images.
#+INCLUDE is cumbersome, does not work with captions, and will generally
break Org customization relying on Org knowing what kind of object is
being exported.

It might be ok optional feature, controlled by some #+ATTR_HTML
attribute. Patches welcome.

For now, yes. But more generally, Org uses #+ATTR_BACKEND to configure
export. For example, see "13.10.6 Images in LaTeX export".
You may arrange ox-html to handle special #+ATTR_BACKEND: :org-embed t
attribute that will be ignored in `org-html--make-attribute-string' and
checked in your `org-html--embed-svg-p'.

If image is not inlined, it must not be displayed as an image, just as a
link. Your code will break this convention.
Please refer to "13.9.9 Images in HTML export" section of Org manual.

Then, I find your code sufficiently different to not link to

I think that the idea with putting explicit file names is not good.
It will force extra work for users.
Instead, it should be possible to switch embedding on/off right at near
image link. And more global setting should deal with regexp patterns or
enabling/disabling embedding globally.

I'm not sure it's strictly better.
The problem in the linked threads was with scaling, and I don't think it
applies anymore. As I just tested in Firefox, at least, I can control
the size of Gerard's SVG illustration perfectly well by setting CSS
height and width attributes on an <object>.
Apart from that, my reasoning amounted only to this:
- <object> works as well as embedding for CSS
- For Org to extract and embed the SVG means more things that can break
(though I admit that it can be made a lot less fragile than the
#+INCLUDE hack) and when they do break, it's an Org problem. With
<object> Org just needs to properly format the tags; if it does, the
rest is the browser's responsibility.
- If the external SVG file is modified, with embedding all files
referencing it need to be exported again for the change to take
effect. With <object> linking to the external file, all that is
needed is refreshing the browser.
- Readable, uncluttered HTML is nice; huge, unreadable stretches of SVG
aren't.
Some arguments for embedding I didn't consider:
- fewer http calls
- It makes accessing the SVG internals with Javascript a bit easier than
with <object> (the difference is just one line of JS) -- and a lot
easier if you trigger Firefox's same-origin restrictions by keeping
the files on a file system rather than a server.

That ship sailed long time ago.
Now, switching back to <object> will be a breaking change that should be
justified. Mind that we use "img" tag for all images, not just svg.
For now, you are just pointing that <object> will inherit CSS of the
page.
But there will be downsides you mentioned, like absence of alt
attribute (which is a big deal - we do not want to compromise

Also, https://www.w3schools.com/TAgs/tag_object.asp explicitly
recommends against <object> for images in favor or <img>.
Finally, I can see that there are ways to use CSS on img+svg:

That's why the proposed patch does not turn the embedding on by default.
But some people do want embedding to make html self-contained, if not
for CSS.
Note that I am inclined to accept the patch for reasons different
from the motivation of the patch author. Especially, if the patch gets
extended to allow embedding raster images as well.

Sure, if users want uncluttered HTML. Some users do. Some wants the
opposite.

It is a feature of `org-export-with-drawers'. Variants of its value:
- t,
- nil,
- ("drawer1" "drawer2"),
- (not "drawer1" "drawer2")
As to tags, separate lists are used: `org-export-select-tags' and
`org-export-exclude-tags'.

I failed to make the flower example work with the information on this
site.
It could be my fault, but maybe also because the post targets the React
framework since its subtitle reads "A Side Quest in Optimizing
Performance
for React".
FWIW, here a brief description of how I solved my problem of making the
MDN flower work taking into account the comments for improvement as
far as I could. Thanks!

Is there any advantages of using separate boolean attributes instead of
multiple values?
- :svg object
- :svg img
- :svg dom (or any other value for inserting contents of SVG files into
HTML)
"inline" is really ambiguous here since it may mean CSS display property
block vs. inline that is similar to Org's block-level elements and
inline objects.
Has anybody compared memory footprint of a document with multiple SVG
images rendered by a browser with <img> vs <object> strategies? It seems
at least Firefox may create frames for each <object> so the page may be
rather heavy.

I do not think it matters. At least, it should not stop us from
providing <object> as an optional feature.

I am not expert in html. Maybe someone else (Timothy?) can chime in.
That said, I do not see why we cannot offer <object> strategy as an
option regardless whether is can solve the problem with CSS.

I think you missed `org-html-inline-image-rules' where users can
include/exclude svg images from inlining.

The term "image in-lining" is a very terse description of what my code
does.
In case of rules 1, 2, and 3 above: the code takes into account the two
relevant options `org-html-inline-image' and
`org-html-inline-image-rules'
to decide whether the image would be in-lined in an <img> tag.
For rule 1 above: in case `svg-as-object' is also true, the code
in-lines
the image in an <object> tag instead of an <img> tag and returns
the <object> tag. In case `svg-as-object' is nil, apply rule 2.
For rule 2 above: in case `svg-inclusion' is also true, return the SVG
contents as a result. In case `svg-inclusion' is nil, apply rule 3.
Rule 3 is applied by the normal "Image file" handling code from
org-html-link in ox-html which handles `org-html-image-inline-rules',
but my code for rules 1 and 2 do too.
My clone of org-html-link is a copy with the exception that I
added 4 lines of code (and 2 lines of comments) to implement
the rules 1 and 2 (but we should not implement rule 2).
Before going ahead with a patch to in-line images in <object> tags,
there remains the question of how to make those tags behave as
much as possible as <img> tags. My knowledge of HTML is very thin
and Javascript even worse.

I am afraid that I am reaching the limit of my HTML-fu.
Let's wait for Timothy (ox-html maintainer) to review this.

That is perfectly fine with me. I put this aside until after his

Ihor, I am not sure that I get your point. If I understand it correctly,
`org-html-inline-image-rules' specifies whether links to svg files
should be kept as links or should be transformed to images. Gerard
proposes to add options how to treat SVG *images*: <img>, <object> or
include content of the SVG file literally. `org-html-inline-image-rules'
does not allow to specify extended options how to treat each match.
I am not against <object> option, my concern is to avoid extremely heavy
page by e.g. rendering a lot of math as svg files. I am not even sure
that the issue is real, however I suspect it might happen. Adding a
warning to docs would be enough.

That's why Timothy should review this patch.
I am missing all these subtle details about HTML due to lack of knowledge.

We can add a warning iff we conclude that the issue is real.

Besides the HTML related question how to mate all SVG options with all
Org features (figures, etc.) there is a purely Org design choice:
whether there should be multiple Org boolean variables and attributes
describing strategy for particular image or it is single variable and
attribute with symbol (or string) value.

If we talk about image attributes defined in the affiliated keywords, we
should better resort to #+ATTR_HTML. Introducing extra affiliated
keyword would be a breaking change.
Org only recognizes affiliated keywords listed in
org-element-affiliated-keywords + ATTR_* keywords.

I am sorry that I was not clear enough. It may be 3 boolean attributes
that may be specified in #+ATTR_HTML: or single one that may take 3
values for <img>/<object>/<svg>.
The only issue with #+ATTR_HTML: is that it is applied to all images
inside a paragraph. So it can not control individual inline images.

Agree. I am in favour of a single attribute.
However, AFAIU, <img> is not always applicable because it does not allow
embedding and <svg> demands embedding. So, this may need to be discussed
more carefully with more input from people familiar with HTML conventions.

That's a general issue. We have it, we know about it, we have previously
discussed how to solve it. But it should not distract us from adding
this particular feature.
