Hi List,
Going through the SVG stuff, I came across this page:
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld-reference/textsymbolizer.html?highlight=label#example
which makes it clear that font’s require a “” for determining font and stuff.
However, this fails in the validator which says it wants SVGParameter, which is also what the specification says.
Is there a reason the documentation says “cssparameter”? It does appear to work anyway, despite failing the validator and not being in the spec.

CssParameter is the element used by the SLD 1.0 spec to supply certain styling parameters. In the Symbology Encoding spec (which is basically SLD 1.1.0) this element name was changed to SvgParameter.
(Thanks very much, OGC. I expect that with the rise in popularity of CSS, this will be changed back in the next version)
GeoServer mostly implements SLD 1.0, with a smattering of SE 1.1.0.
I’m puzzled by your comment that fails validation - when running a trunk version of GeoServer I see the opposite behaviour (CssParameter validates, but SvgParameter doesn’t).

The documentation refers to SLD 1.0, which uses cssparameter.
Your SLD is probably using version 1.1 instead, which uses svgparameter for the same task.
GeoServer supports SLD 1.0 quite well, SLD/SE 1.1 not as well (various parts are not supported).
Cheers

Hi Both,
Thanks for the replies.
Yup, the spec in question is 1.1.0, as is the SLD.
Martin:
“I’m puzzled by your comment that fails validation - when running a trunk version of GeoServer I see the opposite behaviour (CssParameter validates, but SvgParameter doesn’t).”
At least for SLD 1.1.0, on GeoServer 2.2.3, CSSParameter definitely fails, and SvgParameter passes, so this part of the spec has been implemented.
Cheers,
Jonathan
