Depends on what you mean when you say Kindle.
SVG seems to work reasonably well on KF8-capable Kindle devices. So I use the same code on Kindle, but with a little extra magic CSS:
Code:
@media not amzn-mobi {
.kf8only { display: inline; }
.mobionly { display: none; }
}
@media amzn-mobi {
.kf8only { display: none; }
.mobionly { display: inline; }
}
With that, I can wrap the SVG wrapper in a
<div class="kf8only">, and wrap a copy of the bare image with
<div class="kf8only">.
Thus, the SVG gets shown only on KF8-capable Kindle readers, and really old Kindle hardware just gets a static image, with a slightly less than ideal presentation size. It isn't perfect, but it works well enough, IMO.
