Where should the new code be inserted to? Thanks.

In other words, I have output from a mouse position which has been transformed into different coordinate systems, and then gets displayed on the screen. It now looks something like this: lon=414614.58552010887,lat=164066.82345258445 In reality, the values are x and y coords in feet or meters, not lonlat coords. I'd like them to look like this: N 164066, E 414614 Note the truncation of the digits and switching of the x, y (which is customary in my field). Not being a JS expert, I can't figure out how to get at the variable to massage the format prior to display on the screen. Here's the code leading up to the display (inside of a mousemove function): mousepos = map.getLonLatFromViewPortPx(e); var NAD83ft_values = mousepos.clone(); // done several times for different coord translations NAD83ft_values.transform(WGS84_google_mercator, NAD83ft_proj); document.getElementById("NAD83feet").innerHTML = NAD83ft_values; It's unpacking NAD83ft_values that has me thrown.
