zoom to lat+long

[Dylan Beaudette]

Greetings!

So far I have had great success with with mapserver 4.2 compiled for
linux with the help of the mail list!

I was thinking about implimenting a form element that would allow a
persion to zoom to a set lat+long coordinate. All of my geographic data
are in already in LatLong style projection, thus there should be no need
for any complicated math or re-projections.

However, I can't quite figure out how to get mapserver to zoom to a
user-input coordinate pair...

Do i need to calculate a map extent from the user-input coordinates?

Thanks in advance!
