How to configure IIS for SVG and web testing with Visual Studio?
- by macias
Let's say I have a simple web page with svg image in it:
<img src="foobar.svg" alt="not working" />
If I make this page as static html page and view it directly svg is displayed. If I type the address of this svg -- it is displayed.
But when I make this as .aspx page and launch it dynamically from Visual Studio I get alt text. If I type the address of this svg (from localhost, not as a local file) -- browser tries to download it instead of displaying.
I already defined mime type in IIS (for entire server -- "image/svg+xml") and restarted IIS. Same effect as before.
Question: what should I do more?
Update
WireShark won't work (it is in documentation), I tried also RawCap, but it cannot trace my connection (odd), luckily Fiddler worked:
