Feet of climbing calculator online?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Feet of climbing calculator online?

Does anyone know of a free online program that calculates total feet of climbing? For example, gmap-pedometer will give you a graphical display of the elevation changes, but doesn't give total feet climbed. The only way is to look at each peak and try to estimate how many feet are gained. It is time consuming and not very accurate.

I know if I bought a $400 Garmin, I would have this info, but I am looking to do this for free.

I think toporoute can do it, but I don't know for sure since I have a Garmin.

Its pretty much like gmaps pedometer, but focused on bike routes. Also, its elevation graph will give you a total feet (or meters) climbed and total feet descended.
