Hey Floyd, You can do lots with dynamic info using gd and PHP's image functions... for example, you could read the map into a new image, draw a circle around the area in question, then output this new picture...check out php.net's info on images: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php best of luck, ~jack Floyd Baker wrote: > > Hi..
