Another thing:

Code:

Would it actually connect to www.w3.org to get detailed info or the file/reader would cover this? That is, does it need internet connection to function?
No, it will not need an internet connection to function. That is an xml namespace identifier attribute. That url/uri is used as an unique identifier of the namespaces for the svg tags. It is just a guaranteed unique string. An actual website specified in that url/uri need not exist.

Under old pure xml if you were using a fully validating parser and specified the location of a schema, a schema might be downloaded that defined these new tags but svg has long been integrated into normal html and xhtml with modern parsers.
