{{SVGRef}}

The crossorigin attribute, valid on the {{ SVGElement("image") }} element, provides support for CORS, defining how the element handles crossorigin requests, thereby enabling the configuration of the CORS requests for the element's fetched data. It is a CORS settings attribute.

This table shows all possible keywords and their meaning:

Keyword	Description
anonymous	CORS requests for this element will have the credentials flag set to 'same-origin'.
use-credentials	CORS requests for this element will have the credentials flag set to 'include'.
""	Setting the attribute name to an empty value, like crossorigin or crossorigin="", is the same as anonymous.

It follows the same processing rules as the HTML attribute {{htmlattrxref("crossorigin")}}.
