Dandelion clock

Here’s a dandelion clock I made using SVG’s built-in animation functions. Unlike every other SVG clock I’ve seen*, this one doesn’t use any Javascript at all. Instead, the hands are rotated by using <animateTransform> tags, and their starting positions are calculated on the server and pre-loaded into the SVG file.

* Admittedly, I haven’t been looking very hard.

  1. Would be funny to add a `RewriteRule` so that the URL http://ruletheweb.co.uk/dandelion-clock.gif points to the SVG, just to mess with people’s minds :) “OMG HOW CAN THIS GIF TELL THE TIME?!”
