Maybe I'm doing something that can help you Yusuf and all of you that can be
interesting
my app, use only jbox, *.map and *.html(plus javascript)

What my app do is

	show layers ( you can on/off each one)
	know UTM clics
	query a point and retrieve information about it
	move through the map, zoomin, zoomout ... 

I will ask my webmaster in order to allow people to have a look at the
aplication. I mean I will try to publish that aplication, for now I can only
attach the files.

you just have a idea of what i'm doing... hope in the next weeks you can
have a look at it!!!

Tks

Hi Yusuf,
I'm not quite clear on what you want to do, why don't you walk us through an

example of how a user would interact with your application.  Tell us what
you 
want to be able to do from an application use perspective, that will help us

out.
