Update: Less sad since IE7 mode is no longer the default mode
It is a sad day for web standards.

A few months ago I learned about this excellent set of games created by rkm for the Nintendo DS browser.
Inspired by this, I thought I’d try my hand and at creating a game of my own for the system. Here, finally, is the result of that work. The game is fairly straightforward, move the paddle around to bounce back the ball, break all blocks to proceed to next level. Bonuses can fall and can be good or bad. Currently only four levels available, more (and further game improvements) may come later.
It’s here! A working version of the SVG image replacement script.
Purpose
This script substitutes specified images and background images with SVG images for web browsers that support them. This makes it perfect for anyone who would like to start using SVG for their site design, but wants to make sure it will look okay for browsers that do not yet support it.
Features
- Future-proof – Checks for actual support, no browser sniffing
- Unobtrusive – Only affects browsers with support, uses fallback content without support or if javascript is disabled
- Simple to use – Just include one javascript file to your pages and use the appropriate image names
- Small file – Only 1.8 KB!
