Hello Gregory, I do a similar thing for Freemap, actually querying the underlying PostGIS database.
Go to http://www.free-map.org.uk/index.php?lat=51.05&lon=-0.72 then keep zooming in until you can see pub symbols. Click on any of them. I use OpenLayers code to convert the zoom to a Mercator lat/lon, then the PHP script osmlookup.php to query the PostGIS database. See http://www.free-map.org.uk/freemap/javascript/FreemapClient.js for the client side code, note the osmLookup() function. For the server side code, download http://www.free-map.org.uk/downloads/freemap.tar.bz2 and look at common/osmlookup.php. BTW will try and get round to doing clickable POIs on the main OSM site soon, got sidetracked into adding .osm support for Mapnik. :-) Nick _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dev
