URL Encoding (Recommended)
- - Generally produces smaller output
- - More human-readable in dev tools
- - Better compression with gzip
- - Recommended for most use cases
url("data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg...%3E")Base64 Encoding
- - Works with more complex SVGs
- - Avoids escaping issues
- - Better compatibility with older tools
- - Larger output size (~33% overhead)
url("data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2...")When to use inline SVG backgrounds
