For open shapes, see the <polyline> element.

Example

  <!-- Example of a polygon with the default fill -->
  <polygon points="0,100 50,25 50,75 100,0" />

  <!-- Example of the same polygon shape with stroke and no fill -->
  <polygon points="100,100 150,25 150,75 200,0"
            fill="none" stroke="black" />
