JavaScript and SVGZ

Question

JavaScript

There is a loaded XMLHttpReques'om SVGZ archive.
Is it possible to convert it to SVGElement using DOM methods without using third party libraries?

Answer 1

If on the server, giving this archive, add http headers: then the archive will be transferred over the network, and the browser will automatically decompress it itself.
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: image/svg+xml

Answer 2

Theoretically, it is not excluded. You can try writing it to an SVG element via the data:. Practically - I do not know, I have not tried it.
