[Mapserver-users] navigation arrows around the map

Hi,

you can use static urls as links for your navigation arrow images as the
most simple way of implementing a fixed panning mechanism. I would
prefer some javascript that is executed when the nav arrow is clicked,
since it is more flexible, but the idea beneath is always to set the cgi
parameter "imgxy" to some value that you want to become the new center
of the next map image.

Javascript example code, use it like <img ... onClick="pan('n');">
function pan(x) {
  pf = 6; // pan factor
  mw = [mapwidth];
  mh = [mapheight];
  switch (x) {
  case "n" :
    document.karte.imgxy.value = mw/2+" "+mh/pf;
    break;
  case "s" :
    document.karte.imgxy.value = mw/2+" "+(mh-mh/pf);
    break;
  [...]

HTH, Michael
