On my page, I use a lot of CSS3 gradients. I would like to provide some SVG backup for IE and Opera.
Creating SVG backups for CSS3 linear gradient is pretty simple. I am using the following code:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<linearGradient id="g" gradientTransform="rotate(90,.5,.5)">
<stop stop-color="black" offset="0"/>
<stop stop-color="white" offset="1"/>
</linearGradient>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100%" height="100%" fill="url(#g)"/>
</svg>
Which is equivalent to this css:
background:-webkit-linear-gradient(black,white);
background: -moz-linear-gradient(black,white);
background: -o-linear-gradient(black,white);
background: linear-gradient(black,white);
Now, when it comes to CSS3 radial gradients, things get a little more complicated. I was not lucky to create an SVG equivalent for CSS3 radial gradient, as shown below:
background:-webkit-radial-gradient(50% 10%,circle,rgba(255,255,255,.3) 10%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 90%);
background: -moz-radial-gradient(50% 10%,circle,rgba(255,255,255,.3) 10%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 90%);
background: -o-radial-gradient(50% 10%,circle,rgba(255,255,255,.3) 10%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 90%);
background: radial-gradient(circle at 50% 10%,rgba(255,255,255,.3) 10%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 90%);
So far I have managed to do this:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<radialGradient id="g">
<stop stop-opacity=".3" stop-color="white" offset=".1"/>
<stop stop-opacity="0" stop-color="white" offset=".9"/>
</radialGradient>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100%" height="100%" fill="url(#g)"/>
</svg>
But it gives me different results.
How can I create the same gradient as the original in CSS3?
