I am not sure if I understand exactly, but look into
   getTotalLength() and getPointAtLength



if P is a path (obtained by P=document.getElementById(pathid) ) then

P.getTotalLength() returns its length. 



The W3C SVG1.1 specs spell them out as I recall.



Holler if you need examples, but I think this should do what you need.

  Subject: [svg-developers] calculating the total pathlenght of an vector 
graphic


  Hello,
  and sorry for the not so good english (this is the reason, why I did 
  not found answers yet I believe).

  I want to calculate the sum of the lenght of all paths in a vector 
  graphic in Millimeter. The source formats which I have can either be 
  SVG or Illustrator.ai/.eps etc.

  The best solution would be, if I could determine it by uploading an 
  SVG-File to an Java-Script driven Webpage (which I can host by myself).

  As this seems to me like making the Jackpot, I also would be glad 
  about informations, if I can determine the path lenght out of the SVG-
  File somehow?

  Thank you very much for your Brainstorming and Ideas.

  Nearby: My Name is Tom and I live in Vienna and I'am not an 'Hero' in 
  Programming :)
