Nokia today announced the release of their new mobile browser for the S60 Edition 3 platform, formerly known as Series 60. It was already known that S60 Ed. 3 supported SVG Tiny via the JSR 226 J2ME APIs, but now Nokia, through their new browser, also support SVG Tiny 1.1 Plus in a browsing context. Within this new browser, SVGT is supported as a plug-in through the Netscape APIs, allowing SVGT contents to be referenced from XHTML using the <object> element. Additionally, the browser can also display SVG files standalone as SVG documents get requested directly or through the traversal of an XHTML hyperlink.

Built on the increasingly popular KDE and Apple WebCore and JavaScriptCore open-source technologies, the new Nokia S60 browser also supports a host of W3C standards such as HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0, CSS 1, 2, and 3 (partially) as well as DOM Levels 1 and 2. Nokia phones supporting the browser are the Nokia E60, E61, E70, 3250, N80, N71 and N92, all featured on the Nokia section of the Mobile SVG phones list.
