[mapguide-users] Two maps in the same layout

Hi Mark, about your question:

- Why would you need to modify any of the viewer files in order to have 2
pages in your map? 
I have modified viewer files because I want to set a themed layer
dynamically in each map in the first time that my application to be loaded. 
My use case is: The theming is placed according to a preference to set by
the user in previous session. Thus the applicacion could show two
preferences on the same map(and the same layout). This is useful when you
want to show comparisons, for example: To compare population 1980 vs 1990
(like a dashboard).

Ivan good sugestion about the iframes, it's better than frameset. However I
would like to do it using FUSION viewer. Is it possible?

Thanks,
