<div class="markdown_content"><p>I am not able to reproduce this. Is your browser not able to display the SVG on-line demos?<br/> <a href="https://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo_svg_6.0/" rel="nofollow">https://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo_svg_6.0/</a></p> <p>What O/S and browser are you using?<br/> I would be happy to look a patch, but it will be hard to test and evaluate if I can't reproduce the problem.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>If an SVG file with <code>mouse</code> is created, embedded into a web page and then opened in a browser, <code>parseSettings()</code> in <code>gnuplot_svg()</code> in <code>gnuplot_svg.js</code> tries to convert the commented JavaScript with statements line <code>gnuplot_svg.setting = (value);</code> into JSON.</p> <p>However, the comment fragment contains more newlines than expected and after all regexes are applied has double commas, commas in the beginning and commas in the end; causing <code>JSON.parse()</code> to fail, breaking all subsequent JavaScript.</p> <p>I would like to submit a patch fixing this, and for this purpose creating this bug.</p></div>
