That is just the sort of thing I need. I understand the math and doing the JavaScript is no problem.

Thank you very much for showing me how that could work. I can make a grid that will have slightly different placement in each map (diagram) and keep the central element the same from one to the other. Is there a way to move a group from one set of coordinates to another? For example if the grid were originally placed x=0 y=0 width=540 height=540 would it be possible to change the x and y values? Maybe I should go ahead and dig into how the DOM works. That will probably give me the answer I'm looking for. Again, thanks for the suggestions, they were golden.
