SVG is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics and graphical applications in XML. To view these properly you will need the proper software, we have found that various apps such as Paint Shop Pro 8, Adobe GoLive and Illustrator can all open / create . You can also view them in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firebird with the aid of plugins

We used the svg viewer from adobe  which gave us no problems at all.
