Just looked at your demo and have some remarks: - Perhaps the report form could be implemented as an OL popup. This eliminates the need for a page reload and it looks and behaves like one would expect when one ctrl-clicked on the map. - The 'number of poi problem' might also be solved with a number of measures, like: -- If you send the area watching mapper an email with a hyperlink to the map showing the problem POI. This way you'll have only one POI active in the map while watching the problem. -- Corrected/finished reports disappear from the map. -- Require the map to be zoomed in to certain extend before showing any POI. -- POI have a maximum lifetime. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
