I want to implement the functionality like svg-edit on rectangle element
Rotating the SVG rec
I have created a working example of what I believe you are describing on my site here:
http://phrogz.net/svg/drag_under_transformation.xhtml
In general, you convert the mouse cursor into the local space of an object by:
Creating a mousemove
event handler:
var svg = document.getElementsByTagName('svg')[0];
document.documentElement.addEventListener('mousemove',function(evt){
...
},false);
In that event handler, convert the mouse coordinates (in pixels) into the global space of your SVG document:
var pt = svg.createSVGPoint();
pt.x = evt.clientX;
pt.y = evt.clientY;
var globalPoint = pt.matrixTransform(svg.getScreenCTM().inverse());
Convert the global point into the space of the object you are dragging:
var globalToLocal = dragObject.getTransformToElement(svg).inverse();
var inObjectSpace = globalPoint.matrixTransform( globalToLocal );
For Stack Overflow posterity, here's the full source of my SVG+XHTML demo (in case my site is down):

For those who use Chrome please add the following lines after
var pt = svg.createSVGPoint();
SVGElement.prototype.getTransformToElement = SVGElement.prototype.getTransformToElement || function(elem) {
return elem.getScreenCTM().inverse().multiply(this.getScreenCTM());
};
