It may not necessarily be Mapnik's fault. In the event of freakiness, deleted nodes can sometimes get into a way. Some parts of the toolchain (Mapnik via osm2pgsql, the /map and /way calls) will ignore the deleted nodes. Other parts (Potlatch, the /way/history call) won't. If this is the case (can't check right now, database is offline) then you can just force the nodes to be written by editing the way with Potlatch and changing something, so it rewrites the lot. cheers Richard _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
