It sounds like you're not in modern document mode. Internet Explorer 11 shows that SVG is just fine when you are in standards mode. Make sure that if you have the x-ua-compatible meta tag, you have the value "Edge" and not the earlier mode.
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
You can define your document mode by opening your F12 developer tools and checking the document mode drop-down list (see the top right, currently “Edge”) or the emulation tab:

If you do not have the x-ua-compatible meta tag (or title), be sure to use doctype, which puts the document in standards mode, for example, <!DOCTYPE html> .
