Cursor position

Hey Martin..
It was very nice of you that you replied and it was really a nice effort..
But, It did not work and now I am afraid if some basic thing is missing in
my code or what..

I just kept refining the itasca demo as for my need and many things I
implemented in it..
But somethings are still lacking which I am not able to figure out..

1. When I click on Reference map, the original map loses focus instead of
navigating itself to that position.

2. The loading image when map is refreshed.

3. The cursor position (real world) when mouse is over the map.

4. I want to zoom-out more and the initial  map should be smaller than it is
now.

5. I put on copyright symbol with help of layer but  (c) symbol is not clear
because of font and other than that can I use graphics for this too.

6. How to resize map window for different computer screens.

7. Grids are not working.

I have pasted my html code below the message.

I am trying hard for getting these answers and please see if you are able in
solving at least some of my problems


Thanks and Regards
Satish
