Thank everyone who offered help.  I did two paths with elliptical arc.  It 
worked.

SVG is a great technology.  I hope it will be fully supported on all major 
browsers.  I also hope that not only professional computer programmers, but 
also non-professionals such as me will use it more and more in designing pages 
for Internet. 

Thanks again for your teaching.

      If you could not find that then I can send you a javascript rountine to
 split that Ellipse into 4 Bezier Curves. Left-top,right bottom.
 
     But I you need to devide your ellpise not at the 90 degree even then:
 The you can do the Path with  four ARC(s). 2 on each path. With No "z"
 
   Or I can Send your a piece of javascript to draw your ellipse into a
 series of lines (for your path).
