SVG is a case sensitive language so textpath actually needs to be written as textPath.

If you embed the SVG in html then you don't need namespaces as html doesn't support them (unlike xhtml). If you have your SVG standalone you'll also need xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" on the root element.
