GeoMoose (<a href="http://www.geomoose.org/">http://www.geomoose.org/</a>)
is an OpenLayers based project that supplies a complete (+/-) GUI,
including a "Jump To" combobox and a tabbed set of panels for
displaying information. You may be able to get some ideas from
it...<br>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I need some ideas on how to start a project using
openlayers. The project entails a simple map which shows
points. Each point has certain attributes
(strings/integers)which correspond to locations in a town. My
department would like a map which shows the individual
attributes and the sum totals of the integer field listed in
the attribute table beside the map when they are present in
the map(ie BBOX strategy) or through a selection process(combo
control?).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>eg. select town A from the comboBox -> the map zooms to
the town bounds -> the statistics from the points present
in that town are displayed in tabular form beside the map.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is this kind of thing do-able in an interactive way using
postgis and geoserver, or should I be looked at static json
lists?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>How /where should I start looking?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If anyone has done similar work or has seen such maps i´d
be grateful to see them,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yours,</div>
<div><br>
