           Summary: html output does not display correctly in IE7
           Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
           Version: 5.2
          Platform: All
               URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/SOA-1179
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: low
         Component: publican
        AssignedTo: jfearn at redhat.com
        ReportedBy: dmison at redhat.com
         QAContact: ecs-dev-list at redhat.com

    Classification: Red Hat
    Target Release: ---


Description of problem:
Internet Explorer users cannot use the html documentation that is generated by
publican.

The object tag that is required for all non-IE browsers to display SVG seems to
cause IE to break the entire page.  If you use <img>it still renders as a
broken image because the format is not supported but doesn't break the whole
page.  

<object data="Common_Content/images/redhat-logo.svg" type="image/svg+xml"/> 

This means that page breaks immediately after the subtitle and is not usable.

A JBoss JIRA was raised, https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/SOA-1179 , to
report this.

Because SVG content does not display natively in Internet Explorer anyway
perhaps we should convert the SVG to png and display via <img>


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
publican 0.42

How reproducible:
everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1.attempt to view publican generated html docs in Internet Explorer 7
eg.
http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_SOA_Platform/4.3.GA/html-single/Programmers_Guide/index.html

Actual results:
screenshot  from JIRA attached

Expected results:
