Re: geographical coordinates

Message-ID: <44a4c4f1$0$12610$5402220f@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> from Bob Bedford
contained the following:

Example: I've the map of the USA. Once I've selected Chicago, I'd like a
point-cross or what ever, on the Chicago point over the map.

How can this be done in PHP ?
In image , as an input type will return the coordinates of the point
clicked. I think the simplest way would be with an absolutely positioned
transparent .gif, positioned according to the co-ordinates returned.
