No.  I've had to customise the stylesheets.
When handling an SVG document (identified by the
file extension '.svg') they use an <EMBED> element
instead of <IMG>.

Not sure at this stage how Mozilla will change this:-
it will be very difficult to produce portable Web pages
if Mozilla requires <IMG> and Adobe requires <EMBED> :-(
