Dhtml mapserver (mapserv.js) panningtool

[Wim Blanken]

Hello Xavier,

A while ago I used this functionality in dbox. It is visible on this site:

http://207.44.178.94/watlas/

You have to use the button called 'schuiven' (sorry this site is in dutch) 
and then
you can drag the map to a new position.

It has been a while since I made this site and i do not have much 
documentation but maybe you are helped looking at the source and the 
javascript libraries i used to implement this. Feel free to do so.

Regards,

Wim Blanken
The Netherlands
