Optimal settings for exporting SVGs for the web from Illustrator?

Question

I\'m looking to use an SVG logo for a website — to make it look great on a responsive design for all devices.

But since there are issues, I want to support as many

Answer 1

Update to @methodofaction 's excellent explanation.

The export options have changed a little in the current version of Illustrator.

1. Adobe SVG Viewer is no longer a thing.

2. But more importantly there is a new setting "responsive" that is checked by default I believe. Take note that this setting will eliminate the height and width property from your svg root node, assuming you will scale the included graphic via css. In some instances however, you want the individual graphic to declare it's size. Make sure to uncheck this setting in these instances.
