I think there are those on this list who can readily retrieve nice examples
of doing this, but let me start with one strategic approach (which may not
be optimal in all contexts). I think what I've got here works in IE/ASV,
Firefox and Opera.
Use JavaScript rather than vanilla SVG. I don't think it can be done without
scripting (though I'd love to find I'm wrong).
1. Render the text, but somewhere off-screen <text x="-1000" id="Q"...> or
something
2. find the size of its bounding box:
SVGDocument.getElementById("Q").getBBox
(Take a peek at
http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/newstuff/text2.svg where this is
done, though with a bit of extra nonsense which you will have to ignore
judiciously)
3. Adjust either the font-size or the size of the rect to make them both
happy.
hope this helps,
David
