Oh, that wasn't too hard. This is what you need to do before loading
your file:
var center = map.getCenter();
var span = map.getBounds().toSpan();
var centreLat = center.y;
var centreLng = center.x;
var spanLat = span.y;
var spanLng = span.x;
var url =
"marker_input.php?lat="+centreLat+"&lng="+centreLng
+"&spanlat="+spanLat+"&spanlng="+spanLng;
Then in the script which picks up the points from the database, derive
the 'box' from which you return points by using the centre and span
values.
