Why won't the font I created in Illustrator work when I import it into my CSS sheet?

So I created a logo using Illustrator and applied a font to it and saved as an SVG. I applied my logo to my header using CSS background property, I then noticed that the font I applied which was a brush script went back to the normal sans, does anybody know why? Will I just have to settle saving it as a JPEG? I thought it was awesome that I could use an SVG file because the logo would not pixilate so much which great for web responsiveness

although upon saying that, its not possible for a font to change in an image as it stores only the pixel data. - it must have been created in the saving - try flattening your file before you save it
