Erm? I thought you said you were setting the type to SVG?

Firstly I'd send some valid SVG, not HTML, as the payload.
Secondly does your browser have SVG handling, either natively or via a
plug-in?
Thirdly have you used any tool such as ieHttpHeaders to check the
content-type?
Fourthly, are you using Internet Explorer? It has a nasty habit of
using the URL's extension to guess the type of the downloaded content
rather than replying on the MIME type. If you're serving the content
with a .svg extension and don't have a plug-in that accepts the content,
IE may well offer to save the file rather than display HTML.
