Right. Cyclemap makes this look deceptively easy. Beautiful and functional with a lot of technology going on in the background. How about something a little simpler than rendering your own map with custom rules. Rejo made it easy to put a default OSM Mapnik map in your web page, and then overlay your gpx track file using openlayers. This would relieve you of having to do any custom rendering, but you will have to record / create a suitable gpx trackfile. The details are here. https://rejo.zenger.nl/topo/embed-osm-and-track-in-webpage.php An example is here. http://weait.com/content/easy-osm-your-gpx-tracks _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
