Save as an HTML file (TESTSVG.HTML), it works in Chrome but not in IE9. If you change the file name to .SVG (TESTSVG.SVG), it will work on both browsers.
I need to make it work on IE9 using the HTML extension.
Tks for any help.
If it's acceptable to have two files, you can do the following (tested in IE9). You'd save your SVG as test.svg in this case:
