I wrote in with a problem that I thought was a bug in iOS8, it was, and is, in my opinion a bug. It seems that Apple in its infinite wisdom has decided that 4k images are not allowed to be displayed on mobile systems, cell phones and tablets.
 

 The largest display file allowed is a width of 3072 pixels, which is only 80% of a 4k image. So if you are having problems displaying SVG images check the pixel size and adjust accordingly.
 

 I resized the opening image on my site to display at 2880 by 1620 pixels, which is 75% of a true 4k image. Problem solved.
 

 However, if you are planning to create a site that can be seen on all devices using single 4k image files, then you will have a problem displaying to a 4k HDTV using an Apple product running iOS.
 

 Other platforms are A OK.
