Where you get your coordinates for your point for of course depends very
much on what your point is, but I am using zoomToExtent with a Bounds
object to focus the view of my maps.<br>
<br>
You can see an example here: <br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.yunnanexplorer.com/transport/station/funing/">http://www.yunnanexplorer.com/transport/station/funing/</a><br>
<br>
This puts a marker on the map (the bus station icon) and centers the map
on it. Here the point coordinates are supplied by the web server which
also has calculated the bounds around the center point. (The inelegant
code layout comes from the page templating compositing on the server
side). <br>
