In HTML if I want to know how many pixels there are in my browser window
(even though the original philosphy of HTML was that I shouldn't ever have
to know) I could do so sorta like this:
if (document.all){
rightedge=document.body.clientWidth;
bottomedge=document.body.clientHeight
}else{
rightedge=window.innerWidth;
bottomedge=window.innerHeight;
}
this handled browser differences between IE and Netscapce/everybody else.
I have been able to use that to measure the size of HTML objects once
rendered in the browser -- say a paragraph with an unknown amount of text in
it. That way I can calculate onscreen real estate and allocate according to
some pharaoh wisdom (as contrasted with oracle wisdom).
So, how do I do that in an SVG document? Neither clientWidth nor innerWidth
appears as an attribute of any of the objects I can see in the SVG DOM.
I may simply be missing out on some attribute definitions in the viewport --
so it's conceivable that I'm just missing some fundamental concept of SVG.
