can i access svn+ssh://someAddress by webbrowser?

+1  A: 

I don't see how that would be possible, since you need at least an accessible HTTP server. Sorry.

+3  A: 

No, the "svn" part of that access scheme implies that the protocol to be used is svn's own, then wrapped in ssh to make it secure. Since svn is not a protocol natively supported by most web browsers, you need a svn-to-web "gateway", i.e. the svn host must also run a web server, that in turn must access the svn repositories and make them available over http.

Using SVNProtocolHandler you can visit svn:// urls in Internet Explorer. It even supports the svn+ssh:// protocol, but it requires a configured ssh client.

Note: SVNProtocolHandler is created by the primary developer of TortoiseSVN, but is not part of TortoiseSVN.
