Yes, Webflow has the capability to dynamically load SVG files for a dynamic header. Here's how you can achieve this:

Prepare your SVG files: Make sure you have the SVG files ready and optimized for web use. You can use any vector editing software like Adobe Illustrator to create or modify the SVG files.
Upload SVG files to your assets: In your Webflow project, navigate to the assets panel and upload the SVG files that you want to use in your dynamic header.
Add an Embed component: Drag and drop an Embed component onto your Webflow page where you want the dynamic header to be displayed.
Insert the SVG code: Double-click on the Embed component to open the code editor. Inside the code editor, insert the SVG code for the desired SVG file. You can obtain the SVG code by opening the SVG file in a text editor or by exporting the SVG from software like Illustrator.
Style and position the SVG: Use Webflow's Designer to style and position the SVG element within the dynamic header area. You can modify the colors, size, and position of the SVG to match your design requirements.
Repeat for other SVG files: If you have multiple SVG files that you want to dynamically load for your dynamic header, repeat steps 3-5 for each SVG file, adding separate Embed components for each SVG.
Set up dynamic loading: To dynamically load different SVG files based on certain conditions, you can use Webflow's CMS or custom code. For example, if your dynamic header changes based on different pages, you can create a CMS collection that stores the SVG file names and dynamically load the SVG based on the current page identifier.

By following these steps, you can dynamically load SVG files for your dynamic header in Webflow. This allows you to have a flexible and visually appealing header that adapts to different pages or conditions on your website.
