Sorry, I realise I hadnt added enough detail. Ideally what I would like is some way of building that results list (or summary) based on what was displayed on the map at the time.<br><br>Has anybody referenced the feature data outside of the map? I dont want to have to write serverside code, I just want to be able to reference the information coming back via the WFS Layer on other parts of the page.

<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"> That too is easy, if you have a spatial
database as your backend (PostGIS, MsSqlSpatial, Oracle, DB2). We are doing
something very similar on our HUD site. Many of the result sets have a 'view
in map' link that uses the extents from the objects geometry to make a
JavaScript call to re-center the map. If you follow that example, you should
easily be able to duplicate the google maps search results.</span></font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Thanks John - I'll be
looking at that as soon as I get the time :o(<br>
<br>
Next question - can anybody point me at an example that works like the Google
Maps search results? You could search for 'estate agents' in 'London',
and be presented with a list of estate agents on the left hand side of the
screen, and the popups on the map. <br>
<br>
I want to present a list of features listed in tabular form, and clicking on
the text navigates the map to the feature (popup).<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
Rob<br>
