<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to use
the OpenLayers code on my own web pages, but I have encountered a number of
anomolies that I cannot address without assistance.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>1) I have
successfully placed the latitude/longitude display on my map. However, the
example I used to do this causes it to appear in the lower right hand corner of
the map. I cannot determine why this happens in the example, and cannot
get mine to replicate that location for this display. It will only appear
in the upper left-hand corner and conflicts with the directional graphics
there.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>2) I need to know
"how" to include a tiled image of my personal maps to the code. All the
examples go to map servers that provide that option for the images. None
of the examples show how to include a set of tiled images that I've
created. I am hoping that I do not have to create a map server to do
this.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>3) Some of the
examples create a map from a pre-determined location on Earth. Is there a
way of defining a new world? For example if one wanted to use OpenLayers
to map Mars or the Moon, how would you define the latitude/longitude orientation
of the maps?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>4) After zooming in
on my primary map, it pixelizes and becomes unreadable. How do you
transition from the primary layer to a new layer that has higher detail at that
zoom level? A map-server would do this automatically for you.
However, all my maps are generated by me and as in #2, I don't want to have to
set up a map server to do this.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>5) One anomoly I
encountered concerned the box tool and the pan tool. Using the published
2.2 code, and clicking on the box tool, when dragging across the map had both
active. I used the 2.3 code and it appears that a fix is included in
that. HOWEVER, the examples all have this bug fixed and do not exhibit
this problem leading me to believe that the code they are using isn't 2.2 code
like they indicate.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>6) Is it possible to
include a layer on the map that contains hot-spots? Can hot-spots be added
to a map layer?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>7) I added labels to
my map by creating a gif layer that has a transparent background. Is it
possible to add text labels to objects/locations on the map to do this in a
scalable fashion?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=984123818-19022007><FONT face=Arial size=2>8) In order to get
my image to load, I have to access the image through an http reference and am
running WAMP to serve up the image. Is it possible to code the layer
reference to get a graphic from the root or sub-directory?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
