No. I think my ISP's web server has a simple misconfiguration.
It does work for ps and pdf, at least with my copy of Firefox.

ps and pdf, at least the way I see them, are not in the same boat as SVG.
SVG is an image format that can easily be included in a html page. ps and
pdf are stand alone. They assume they control the whole setup and are
targeted at paper. Think 8.5x11 or A4.
Yes, if you have a good pdf display program, you can zoom in/out. But I
haven't seen pdf graphs included inside normal html pages.
Again, my knowledge of this area is not-great. I could easily have missed
something.
