Animating SVG on a curved path in Internet Explorer - animation

I'm trying to animate along a path based on this post: move SVG group on path trail based on percentage of whole path trail
It works beautifully in all browsers but Internet Explorer. I've read lots of posts about the lack of support in IE but I still have enough users that use it that I need to consider it. Can I convert this to another method?
Here is my code (simplified icon here, more complex icon in CodePen):

The issue of your code is in the JavaScript.
Arrow function => is not supported in IE. You need to use the traditional function expression.
The input event on input range won't be triggerrd in IE. You need to use change event to monitor the change of the input range. But change event won't be triggered in other modern browsers, so we need to combine the two event handlers.
I define the function as moveit and combine the two event handlers like this:
<input type="range" id="theRange" value="0" oninput="moveit()" onchange="moveit()" />
The complete sample code is like this:
let pathlength = path.getTotalLength();
let pos = path.getPointAtLength(0);
theUse_car_right.setAttributeNS(null, "x", pos.x);
theUse_car_right.setAttributeNS(null, "y", pos.y);
document.getElementById("percentage").textContent = "Completion=0%";
function moveit() {
let perc = parseInt(theRange.value);
let leng = pathlength * perc / 100;
pos = path.getPointAtLength(leng);
theUse_car_right.setAttributeNS(null, "x", pos.x);
theUse_car_right.setAttributeNS(null, "y", pos.y);
document.getElementById("percentage").textContent = "Completion=" + perc + "%";

Animating SVG on a path when window loads

I have an SVG that animates along a path when a range slider is moved: Animating SVG on a curved path in Internet Explorer
However, I'd like the animation to occur when the window loads. Preferably, I'd like it to animate to a percentage of the path (theRange). theRange is a set number which I change in the code (it indicates percentage of people that completed a survey. I'd like to keep some way of tracking the percentage that the avatar has traveled, because I want to trigger popup windows when "perc" reaches 40 and 60. Client requires it to work in IE 10.
Here it is in CodePen: https://codepen.io/mrsgorgon/pen/yLVjaVL
Below is what I have so far. Nothing happens, but I get no errors either.

…in Svelte.
The Problem
I can't seem to get d3plus to work with Svelte.
First I tried using <svelte:head> to house the <script src="https://d3plus.org… lines. I don't recall what happened when I tried that, but my hunch is that <svelte:head> only works with CSS, or other files whose content doesn't need to be parsed by Svelte. ¯_(ツ)_/¯?
At any rate, my next approach is represented (in part) below. I first saved d3.js and d3plus.js in src, then, as shown, I import the symbols directly.
In this second scenario, though, I keep getting this console error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'document' of undefined
at d3.js:8
at d3.js:9553
at createCommonjsModule (index.mjs:1328)
at index.mjs:1328
at main.js:8
Presumably what's happening here is that the d3 source is getting run before the app's had a chance to load, and so document remains undefined? Regardless, I'm stuck!
Here's the (broken) code, fwiw:
<script>
import d3 from './d3.js';
import d3plus from './d3plus.js'
d3plus.textwrap()
.container(d3.select("#circleResize"))
.resize(true)
.draw();

How can I get this working in Svelte??? 🥴
Working code

📝 The range slider and bound variables are just a bit of reactive fun to test moving the text and balloon together.

SVG Cross Browser (Firefox) Issues

I tried to adapt a codepen thing for waves with svgs.
Works just fine in Chrome, Safari and Edge, but not in Firefox (and IE, but I don't care too much about that).
I suspect some Syntax problem with the svg. The animation works just fine, but the svgs are not displayed correctly. In Firefox it's just a straight line instead of waves.
Anyone out there, that has an idea about that?
Thanks a lot in advance.

animated svg mask doesn't work in firefox

h1 everyone, i'm trying to make a cross-browser animation based on svg mask for svg elements. At first, I caught a bug with css, in firefox mask doesn't work with css 'width' and 'height', only with inline properties. So, next question - how to animate mask for firefox, nothing harder that 'width resize'. https://codepen.io/flyby/pen/KmYOgb
<div id='cont'>
<svg>
<defs>
<mask id='rectMask' maskUnits='userSpaceOnUse' maskContentUnits='userSpaceOnUse' transform='scale(1)'>
<rect x='0' y='0' id='maskRect' width='700' height='850'/>
</mask>
</defs>
<path id='maskedPath' d='m 0,0 l 650,0 -100,850 -550,0 z' mask='url(#rectMask)'/>
<path id='riverPath' d='m 653,0 l -100,850' mask='url(#rectMask)'/>
<path id='notMaskedPath' d='m 655,0 l 650,0 0,850 -750,0 z'/>
</svg>
</div>
CSS:
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
overflow:hidden;
}
#cont {
width:100vw;
height:100vh;
background-color:rgb(50,50,50);
}
svg {
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
#maskedPath {
stroke:none;
fill:rgb(230,230,230);
}
#notMaskedPath {
stroke:none;
fill:rgb(230,230,230);
}
#riverPath {
stroke:rgb(50,160,240);
stroke-width:8;
fill:none;
}
#maskRect {
width:0px;
height:850px;
fill:white;
stroke:none;
animation: resize 3s linear infinite;
}
#-moz-keyframes resize {
50% {width: 700px !important;}
0%,100% {width: 0px !important;}
}
Like you have discovered, your can't (yet) set geometric properties, like width and height of SVG elements in Firefox. It's not a bug. It's just an SVG 2 thing that Firefox has not implemented yet, but Chrome has.
The solution is to use the built-in SVG ("SMIL") animation elements, instead of CSS animation.
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
overflow:hidden;
}
#cont {
width:100vw;
height:100vh;
background-color:rgb(50,50,50);
}
svg {
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
#maskedPath {
stroke:none;
fill:rgb(230,230,230);
}
#notMaskedPath {
stroke:none;
fill:rgb(230,230,230);
}
#riverPath {
stroke:rgb(50,160,240);
stroke-width:8;
fill:none;
}
#maskRect {
fill:white;
stroke:none;
}
<!--this animation doesn't work in FIREFOX, and not tested in IE11 ad Edge YET, WILL BE FIXED SOON (I HOPE)-->
<div id='cont'>
<svg>
<defs>
<mask id='rectMask' maskUnits='userSpaceOnUse' maskContentUnits='userSpaceOnUse' transform='scale(1)'>
<rect x='0' y='0' width="0" height="850" id='maskRect'>
<animate attributeName="width"
keyTimes="0; 0.4; 0.5; 1"
values="0; 670; 670; 0"
dur="4s" repeatCount="indefinite"/>
</rect>
</mask>
</defs>
<path id='maskedPath' d='m 0,0 l 650,0 -100,850 -550,0 z' mask='url(#rectMask)'/>
<path id='riverPath' d='m 653,0 l -100,850' mask='url(#rectMask)'/>
<path id='notMaskedPath' d='m 655,0 l 650,0 0,850 -750,0 z'/>
</svg>
</div>

firefox 35.0.1: svg mask animation doesn't work

after my firefox update to version 35.0.1 my svg animations doesn't work in firefox, but it was working in previous versions and it still works in firefox beta (36), nightly (37.0a2) and other browsers (opera, chrome, safari, modern ie):
html:
<svg version="1.1" id="logo-svg" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px" width="55px" height="53.758px" viewBox="-1061.986 3038.43 55 53.758" enable-background="new -1061.986 3038.43 188.279 53.758" xml:space="preserve">
<g id="logo-mask" >
<rect id="sygnet" fill="#FFFFFF" x="-1100" y="3038" width="100" height="50"/>
</g>
<g id="logo-black">
<rect id="sygnet" fill="#000000" x="-1100" y="3038" width="100" height="50"/>
</g>
</svg>
<div id="button">Click me!</div>
css:
body{
background-color: #777777;
}
#button{
margin-right: 100px;
display: block;
width: 100px;
height: 20px;
float: right;
background-color: #fff;
cursor: pointer;
text-align: center;
line-height: 20px;
}
js (using snap.svg):
$(document).ready(function(){
var s = Snap(),
svg = Snap.select('#logo-svg'),
logo = Snap.select('#logo-mask'),
logoBlack = Snap.select('#logo-black'),
mask = svg.rect(-1100, 2830, 280, 100).attr({
fill: 'white',
id: 'maska-logo'
});
logoBlack.attr({'mask': mask, 'opacity': 1});
});
$(document).on('click', '#button', function(){
var maska = Snap.select('#maska-logo');
maska.animate({
transform: 'T'+[0,200]
}, 500);
});
simple example: http://jsfiddle.net/7yq14L0f/2/
any idea, why? :(
It was caused by a change in the Firefox code which was not completely correct and which was then fixed. Bug 932771 caused it and bug 1127507 which was backported as far as Firefox 36 fixed it.
