RE: Interactive Taboo TV Channel Guide ----with Maps !!

[Keith Doxey <keith.doxey@xxxxxxx>]

Dear Ordinance Survey,

I reverse engineered one of your pages so that I could use a Grid
Reference cunningly extracted from  several web pages on the BBC website to
point people at your maps. However one of my punters is unhappy because the
circle on the map is adacent to a TV transmitter instead of circling it.
Please can you have a word with some of those nice military types to see if
they can supply so photos from one of them there spy satellites so that
Stuart can read the dials on the front of the transmitter.

That should get in close enough for him  :-))


Thanks

Keith

PS. I dont think I've infringed your copyright on the image cos I never
touched it.
Oh damn....just admited viewing and "borrowing" the source of
your code
:-((

PPS.
Glad you like it Stuart.
I am now working on version 2

Excellent, really excellent.

I have found an error though. When you click on the map for Granada/BBC
Northwest - Whalley Repeater, the circle is in the wrong place as you can
see the symbol for the repeater next to it on the map.

Yes, I'm being picky, but my tutor at college never gave 100%, and neither
do I :-)

Good job Keith.
