<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>right, changing a points radius in the style makes the marker that represents a point larger, but it isnt a "Circle" Feature because it remains the same size when u zoom in and out.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>oracle has a WKT outputer that makes a CURVEPOLYGON(# #,# #,# #,# #) or some such nonsence to represent circles. the problem is that it isnt part of the WKT spec so nothing supports it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'd change it to a format that is supported,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>but i can't find anything in any format that can represent a circle.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anybody know if it would be a daunting task to add CURVEPOLYGON support to the WKT parser?</FONT></DIV></DIV>
