Both solution are possible, but the 2nd is probably the easiest.
Simply define some initialMapStates bbox in the "your_project_name".ini
file
in server_conf
mapInfo.initialMapStates.default.location.bbox =
"531800,149000,547000,163600"
mapInfo.initialMapStates.place1.location.bbox =
"431800,139000,547000,153600"
mapInfo.initialMapStates.place2.location.bbox =
"331800,129000,527000,143600"
...
and call it via url with parameter ?initialState=place1 or place2 or ...
http://www.cartoweb.org/doc_head/docbook/xhtml/user.config.html#user.config.
client
http://www.cartoweb.org/doc_head/docbook/xhtml/user.config.html#user.config.
server.maps_config.initial
you can also define a list of shortcuts to locations of your choices, see
http://www.cartoweb.org/doc_head/docbook/xhtml/user.location.html

Thank you very much Oliver,
I'll try your suggestions for new plugin.
As another way for solving this problem do you think possible one of
these
solutions ?
1)
I save several views with view plugin and I call cartoweb project with a
combo box changing the url with javascript
2)
is it possible to run via url a cartoweb project directly with
coordinates
values?
(i.e. .../htdocs/italy.php?bbox=x1,y1,x2,y2)
This would be the best solutions for me....
Thanks again
Valerio
