[mapserver-users] javascript bounding box effort

[Steve Lime]

Don't bother with the ArcIMS site at National Geographic. You'll spend
hours sorting through all the
javascript they've got plus you've got to actually find the files-
they're pretty well hidden. John Hockday
and others in Australia plus some folks at Penn State have already done
this to one degree or another.
The code I got from John (can't find it at the moment) was very
straight forward. It did need some
repackaging to be generally useful though. Perhaps those folks will
post the source.

No, but I'm going to.

As far as I know its the same basic idea as ArcIMS etc. I'm going to
start
by looking at home other sites do it, look at
http://plasma.nationalgeographic.com (ArcIMS) and also at
http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk.

If you want to know how I get on I'll let you know, however, first I
need to
get Mapserver working.

Regards,

Andrew
