color=#0000ff size=2>It certainly would be possible, I just have not seen it
done by anyone to date. It may be part of the forthcoming "Fusion" product
from DM Solutions, but I have not seen that product yet either. I'm sure
that a lot of people care about this type of functionality, including two-way
navigation interaction with the main map. Implementation wise, using a div
in the existing template frameset or using a floating div may
work. An easy way to do this would be to create and update the
keymap using mapagent <SPAN

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=575481116-18122006><FONT face=Arial
