How to make an SVG element transparent (using SVGweb)

In a SVG document, I want to make a <path>-element transparent. I tried <path fill="transparent />" but this gives me a black surface in ie8 (which is the default color for unknown values). I use SVGweb to display the SVG in ie8. How do I make it appear transparent in ie8?

EDIT:

According to the SVG-SPEC ( http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/painting.html#SpecifyingPaint ), the attribute fill takes a value of type <paint>. the value currentColor does work in ie8, yet it's not supported by ff and chrome.

So I'd like to reshape my question: How do I make it appear transparent in ff, chrome and ie8 simultaneously?

fill="none"

Or you can cheat (and hurt performance) with:

fill-opacity="0"
