Hi there,

I am trying to make available some "shortcuts" to the user, meaning that at the 
right side of the Mappanel, there are some names on which the user can click to 
zoom directly to these regions/towns.

However, I don't get how this could be implemented. I searched quite some while 
on the Net, but couldn't really find an answer. I guess that it's not too 
difficult to implement; I am just not too familiar with Javascript. What I came 
up so far is something like:

        <a href="#" onclick="mapdiv = document.getElementById('map'); 
mapdiv.setCenter(6, 45); mapdiv.zoomTo(10);">.....</a>

But it (obviously) doesn't recognize the map ID, as the map only exists as an 
Javascript variable, right?

            // create map instance
            var map = new OpenLayers.Map(); 


            // create map panel
            mapPanel = new GeoExt.MapPanel({
                title: "Map",
                region: "center",
                height: 400,
                width: 600,
                layout: "fit",
                map: map,
                center: new OpenLayers.LonLat(8.1, 46.2),
                zoom: 8
            });

So, what do I need to do to achieve my goal?

Thanks a lot for any hints!

Stef
