yes, you need to reload the whole frameview.phtml (pm 1). You need to do that anyway because you have to refresh/reload also other frames, at least the tocFrame. This is just a problem if you work with cookies for the session (what I try to avoid), otherwise a reload without passing the SID creates a new session. > A project includes one or more reference map, legend, and custom css: > these > files must be in a web directory. ok, it depends what you define as "data". For me these are primarily shapefiles, DB tables etc. An idea for pmapper 2 is to have the base code (typically used with no modification) separated from the custom part for an application, or if you like 'project'. This mainly requires some considerations and studies about best definition of paths etc. An idea was eg. to have it like the Unix dot files: If a file like query.php is in the project subdir, then use this, otherwise use the one in a central repository outside of the project path. This way, you can work with central repositories but still have some modifications on parts where you need them. But it needs a clearly defined strategy for absolute/relative file system and web paths. > I agree, but the solution is not to include the categories (which are > refered to one map file) in pmapper code. categories are one of the last add-ons and therefore have not gone through any 'evolution'. I needed them quickly so I set up a quick solution. armin -- GMX Produkte empfehlen und ganz einfach Geld verdienen! Satte Provisionen f?r GMX Partner: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/partner
