GeoServer has some facilities for embedding such decorations in the graphics
(PNG/JPEG/etc) produced by the WMS. This technique is appropriate if you
want to embed WMS images in your pages using a simple <img> tag with the
usual WMS parameters. See
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/advanced/wmsdecoration.html for
details.
If you want a more dynamic map (with panning and zooming, and perhaps
interactive markers) then you should look into OpenLayers:
http://openlayers.org/ . The map preview page in GeoServer uses this, and
you can use your browser's 'view source' function to see how those maps are
constructed. More general examples demonstrating a wider range of
functionality are available at http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/
Hope this helps.

The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE:
Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
Find and fix more than 250 security defects in the development cycle.
Locate bottlenecks in serial and parallel code that limit performance.
