Hi Albert,

I copied your html code to my local server and use it for the template 
in the mapfile.

The result is: the Map Tools, Map Layers, Reference Map, legend titles 
appear. The icons for the radio buttons do not appear but that's no problem.

The map appears (with some data of mine). If I click on one of the map 
tools, and then into the map, then their is the correct effect. The map 
zooms in or out or recenters.

When I click on the corners of the map margin (for pan), then I get a 
javascript error because "document.mapserv" is undefined.

When I click on the GO button (which took a time to find it) I get 
another javascript error, because "document.corner" is undefined. In 
Lawrence's source code you see that "Corner" is the name of a form.
Your go-Button is in the form "the_form".

Then I have changed "the_form" to "the_map" and i have changed "mapserv" 
in "document.mapserv" to "the_map". Then i deleted the line 
"document.the_map.mode[0].checked=true" because this has an error anywhere.

Now the pan functions on the corner of the image are working. Not 
perfect but they do. They pan an zoom. But I think this a not a big 
problem to solve.

I have changed the "document.corner" into document.the_map. So now the 
Go button kind of works. It produces a fresh page.

And I have changed the [program] placeholders to my actual url because I 
don't know where to set this value.

Try to do the changes and test every step.

I'm now out. Perhaps til tomorrow.

Manfred
