A flash question about Mapserver's SWF output

[Kristjan Annus]

Hello!

I made the container movie, then put one map movie into it and loaded 
the map into this movie.
Then if it is requried to pan, then I move the container. It is useful 
allso for moving some
additional vector layers at the same time with the map (these layers are 
drawn allso to the same container).
You can look at the sample application at:
