Do you have a higher resolution version for zoom-ins?

I found it again here, with credits.

Thanks to your link, I now have the 16384w x 8192h (40MB!) version. I'll chop it up into screen-sized chunks for zooms. I've noticed that gecko/netscape browsers get really slow when the present map is zoomed, probably because they all use the same graphics engine, which doesn't do some of the operating-system dependant things that IE does.

Thanks, Gus! I just thought it was my work computer.

Wave hello to Italy for me, please? I'm homesick.

I just walked over to the window and waved at Italy. Four stories below on the street a man happened to notice and waved back. Perhaps he is Italian.

Now there is a competition in the Programmer Pit to see who can get the most passers-by to wave. The ladies are winning.

Not fair.

ita, if you would like for me to tackle one of the two projects you recently mentioned, shoot me an email. The closing code sounds more interesting than the php upgrade, although 4.1.x to 4.3.x is pretty painless. I'm not sure PHP5 has been gold long enough.

Gus, would it take you much effort to downgrade the map code to 4.1.2?

But the closing code is more important. That way I can stop working on the code that gives posters an electric shock when they trail tags.

ita, I think the main effort in downgrading the map code would be in configuring a box to test on, to see what blows up. Not too big a deal.

It would be a little bit of drag to do the closing code on 4.1 assumptions, then have to monkey with it again on a later PHP upgrade.

How about I replicate the org on a box running 4.3.4, then you could rope a few testers to see how it survives with the closing code changes? Many birds, one stone.

I'm a little leery about the upgrade, Gus, just because they've tied stuff into the control panel here, and I'm not sure what breaks what.

When I get a free moment, I'll ping iStrata and ask them if they have an integrated upgrade to a more recent version.

I know the code works as is just fine, because it used to be on 4.3.4, and we had to downgrade a command or two. But nothing big.

Well, the closing code effort will have to take place in some kind of dev environment, somewhere. If you already have one set up, I could pound on the map code there, as well.

I'm just not sure what box of mine I would want to go backwards with in regard to PHP version. They all seem to be running some little php thing that has stabilised at 4.3, and running two flavors of php on one box feels like a lot of duct-tape and baling wire will be needed.

If you already have one set up, I could pound on the map code there, as well.

Oh, sure we do. We have a bunch. You can have your own -- I'll set it up in a few days.
