The test page on my Umbraco site was just a straight HTML page in a custom directory (which I added to the reserved directories setting in the web.config)
I have just browsed to the file in file explorer and opened using IE9 - so using a file path rather than "http"
The gradients displayed fine this way, so it does appear that Umbraco is in some way overiding the svg functionality.
IE9 and SVG gradient files
Hi there
Just wondering if anyone has experienced any problems with IE9 and applying svg files.
I was attempting to apply a svg gradient to a button however in IE9 the gradient wasn't being rendered.
So I moved all the code and associated files to a standard alone html page outside of Umbraco and it worked fine.
Are there any config settings to make svg work within Umbraco ?
Cheers
Nigel

Note to self - do more research before posting queries....
The issues was with IIS and not having MIME types defined.
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/832/adding-ie-9-mime-types-to-iis-7/ is a great page to refer to if anyone else experiences this problem.
