The <line> Tag

The <line> tag is used to create a line.

Copy the following code into Notepad and save the file as "line1.svg". Place the file in your Web directory:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">

<svg width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

<line x1="0" y1="0" x2="300" y2="300"
style="stroke:rgb(99,99,99);stroke-width:2"/>

</svg>
