Ok, the USA map is updated through Gazoo. The file size is about 500K, I’ll work to reduce it this evening. Thanks for the image size advice, people. Anniz: Of course they know where Vallingby is, there’s a dot on the map showing them. But, if you don’t object, I do for you what I’ve started to do on the the USA map: Stockholm Area Anniz, Vallingby, Sweden I’d like to think the people of Michigan and Wisconsin for spacing themselves out in such a civilized manner. Though I am wondering if Gazoo smells bad or something. All the other people in Wisconsin are as far away as possible without actually leaving the state (or perhaps the Wisconsin border has an excess of static electricity). links again: [http://www.lava.net/~alexman/map/map.html](http://www.lava.net/~alexman/map/map.html) [http://www.lava.net/~alexman/map/mapusa.html](http://www.lava.net/~alexman/map/mapusa.html) ---

I’ve received a report that there is a javascript error on the USA map for at least Netscape 4.74 (but it works fine with IE). I know it worked on Netscape when I left work today, but I don’t know what version of Netscape my work machine has. But, regardless, I can not find an error in the code. If anybody wants to take a look at it and let me know if they find anything it would be appreciated. ---
