help with loadSetArea, please

[Gary Watry]

Hi

Here is where I am at

I am trying to get it to zoom to a location picked from a drop down menu

Drop down code

 	<b> Zoom To Region</b><br>
 	<Font Face="arial", Helvetica, sans-serif" SIZE="2">
 	<Select Name="ViewRegion" on Change="loadSetArea()">
  	<option>Coastal Regions</option>
  	<option>------------------------</option>
  	<option value="-88.84 31.29 -86.63 29.42">Alabama - Coastal</option>
  	</select></font>

javascript code

	function loadSetArea(minX,minY,maxX,maxY)
	{
	newExtent = minX + " " + minY + " " + maxX + " " + maxY;
	document.Mapserv.imgext.value = newExtent;
	document.Mapserv.zoomdir[1].checked = true;
	document.Mapserv.submit();
	return;
	)

when I click on 'Alabama - Coastal' , it tells me done and nothing happens

two issues --

one, I have subscribed to the above list since the day the msf
announcement came out, but have not received any emails from there.

two, I am not too enthused about the forking of the lists. Most of the
"cheetah" folks are the one who are passionate about (for/against) the
ms-enterprise naming, and if the discussion is taken away to a
different list, I am not sure how many will follow. Personally, I
would much rather stay with one universal mailbox and then decide on
my end what to filter out and what to not filter out. The discussion
here is not drastically different such as using vs. developing could
be... this is a discussion by/for/of the community. I don't want to
send my thoughts to one list while most of the community is on another
list.

In any case, #1 above applies -- I am subscribed correctly. I just
double-checked. But nada in terms of messages from the msf list.
