And where is the implementation of saving as image in your example? If could become extremely difficult problem for JavaScript, if you mean creating of a bitmap image. Is it what you mean? What format of output image do you want? More importantly, why? Why not saving SVG itself, which make whole lot more sense than any other image type?

The example what I am trying it don't have implementation for saving SVG as image.
I have not found such type examples, so I am trying to save the SVG only at client side.

But my actual requirement is to save SVG as image(.png or any thing).

Code is
<div id="mydiv">
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
----Some SVG data will be here-----

</div>

Unfortunately I have not found sample for my requirement.

Why doing such crazy thing, saving SVG as image, adding a lot more bytes and loosing so much information? Anyway, client-side generation of a bitmap image would be really difficult. No wonder you could not find "such type examples"; not many would volunteer to do so much work for so miserable goal...
