circle.svg

The circle.svg redraws itself when the page is resized, so it's always looking smart. Excepting in buggy Firefox, where it can't get its height properly and tries to guess.

The code

To add a feature, open up the .svg in a text editor, where you'll find some javascript. Make some changes, make it better and submit your work as a pull request!

By the way...

This is meant to be a lightweight solution, so please don't add any libraries, and make sure your change works in all the working browsers listed below, by adding a test case to the test.html.

If it's a new feature, don't edit any of the existing test cases, add a new one, and try them in combination too. The more testing, the merrier.

Tested & working in...

Using the test page. Please do your own testing and add your results, particularly on mobile.
