Thanks Armin,

For the first, as e brief description, it is the proposal of the general
town-planning scheme. The service is providing by the city of Pula
(local government), where I work.

Thanks for the versions clarification. I have some more questions:

1. Since I am not a web developer, I can't discuss much over frames and
divs, but I am interested in how can the "design"part be separated form
the "content" part in p.mapper? I would really like if I can change the
"visual identity" of my p.mapper sites without the need to change a lot
of HTML code (that I am not expert in). I see pmapper is using
CSS....what can be set in the css except the colors, sizes, etc. For
example, is it possible to change the positions of the elements in a
simple way? I am planning to make some more maps and pmapper seems good
for me so I would like to continue using it...

2. What about the translation mechanism? Is it now separated from the
mapfile?

3. Since my next install of mapserver is on the Windows machine, I have
installed ms4w yesterday...I went to maptools.org and there are
"packaged" versions of some web apps (cartoweb,ka-map,maplab) for ms4w.
I have seen a document on how to package your own application...wouldn't
it be good to do it for pmapper? And to set pmapper link on this site
like other tools are? If you want I can try to do it...

regards, dejan
