Placing a SVG file

I built my logo in Illustrator ( had to learn it I never worked with Illustrator before).

Then SAVED AS SVG.

Put the SVG file in my site folder.

But when I want to place it on my Dreamweaver page I cannot select it.

I am old and self taught so I am sure i missed something.

Thanks, chris

    1. Go to Insert menu.
    2. Click on Image
    3. Browse to the SVG file and click OK.

    On my Win 10 machine, image files (gif, jpg, jpeg, png, svg, psd).

    You have not stated how you have wanted to select the SVG. In saying that, please remember that an SVG is an XML file and not an image file. If you use the pop-up file window in Dreamweaver, you need to select all files rather than just the image files like BMP, PNG etc.

    For SVG's that are not interactive, the easiest way is to use the <img> tag in the same manner as an image file. Have a look at this article: https://vecta.io/blog/best-way-to-embed-svg
