An exception is thrown, NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR here "result = attrVal.baseVal.getItem(0).value;" in node-svg-debug.js, line 107. I debugged using inspector and found it that this example queries a SVGTextElement grabbings its y.baseVal, which is a SVGLengthList, and calls getItem(0) to get the SVGLength object, and then value() to get a float.

As it throws an exception on SVGLength.value, SVGLength couldn't resolve the unit. Quick debugging shows that: alert(this._node.getAttribute("y")); indeed returns "-0.5em".

this._node has no renderer, at the point where the script tries to query the SVG DOM, that's why it can't resolve ems/exs/percentage units. Maybe we shouldn't throw though, I'll investigate.
