<font size="3" face="Comic Sans MS">I've been in conversations exploring the idea of a chat window inside of GeoMoose as well. Things like being able to pass view characteristics, and such to another user, things like that. Our preferred protocol would be to use JABBER. We've used it quite a bit in the past for different (but similar) things. The ability to log a session in Jabber as well as set up secure groups is another plus, and allows for some interesting ways to post information about a particular GeoMoose view, etc, to a wider audience, without complicating the geomoose code too extensively.</font> </p>

Dean,<br><br>  I'd be interested in that.  I expect we'll have a need to do some collaboration between two or three users on our mapping site, so that might be a start.  I had also considered having a tab for a "chat" window (which implies a a chat server, etc)...<br> </p>

We have a "bookmark" tool which allows users to save basic settings such as the last selected set, mapextent and which layers are turned off or on.  The bookmark is printed in the results tab and can be used as a book mark, e-mailed, etc. We use this to support different groups or individuals within the county so that their default views are saved and accessible.   This might be modified to fit what you may need. </p>

I have my app working in geomoose and am getting the layers working thanks to a lot of help from the list. I have another question for the list, again it may be a dumb one but here goes. </p>

My users will access the app from a site that already exists and will do so once logged in, I can pass across a user id on the url (as part of the query string) or as a form variable. The users will then make whatever changes to the map they need (turning layers on and off) and save those changes, I plan to do this by saving into a database and along with the map layer information I would need to save the user id from the url so I can pair up users with their saved map details later on when they are back in the main site. </p>
