Ummm?

I copied the HTML code from Notepad++

So here it is with a few bits left off.

Hmmm?

So, whats next?

This:

Ahhh

I see you used Dropbox to achieve this. Can it be done from my 'Onedrive?"

For those of us who are not mind readers -- what are you trying to do?

Well, for example, here is an svg chart that I managed to get up on my own website. I copied the address from "view the page info" and got this:



... but I cannot seem to be able to get it up on another forum. (nor this forum) Im scratching my head, because png images seem to work ok.

There is no proper link to an svg that could be "embedded" on that page.
Instead, the xml of the svg is present.

For embedding an svg with tags on a forum you need it somewhere hosted with a url -ending .svg.

I'm saying something similar, but using different words, in case it might help you understand more. The chart is not a unique SVG file. The page is an HTML file, and within the html, is some SVG/XML code which creates the chart. (it's inside div tags)

If you know SVG/XML and Inkscape well enough, you could copy just the XML code, and add to it whatever other code is needed to make a proper SVG file. That's what tylerdurden did, apparently. This might help you understand: https://inkscape.org/en/develop/about-svg/

Svg files are XML, and most boards do not permit XML to be attached for security reasons. Just like some boards filter out any typed/pasted HTML or JS unless inside a [code] bb tag.

OTOH, some file hosts will allow hotlinking to svg files, dropbox being one of those hosts.
