You can tell by trying out the URL in Web-Sniffer [1]. Think of it as a
validator for server configuration, if that helps.
In this case, your server seems not to know about SVG, so it tells the
browser that it's sending it a text file.

It's usually easy to fix this problem... instructions are on the SVG
Wiki [2].
By the way, this list, www-svg, is an W3C forum to discuss issues with the
SVG Spec. For questions about development details and such, you should post
to the very active, friendly, and helpful list called SVG-Developers [3].
