How about a configure tabs page, that let you add and configure as many tabs as you liked? So by default, there would be a single tab called "edit" with a URL like: http://openstreetmap.org/potlach?lat=[lat]&lon=[lon]&zoom=[zoom] You could change edit to Potlatch (or even remove it) and add JOSM: http://localhost:8111/load_and_zoom?lat=[lat]&lon=[lon]&zoom=[zoom] And you could add, for example "Information Freeway": http://informationfreeway.org/?lat=[lat]&lon=[lon]&zoom=[zoom] Or even "Google": http://maps.google.co.uk/ll=[lat],[lon]&z=[zoom] etc. Robert (Jamie) Munro -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkn66r4ACgkQz+aYVHdncI3YZwCdE2af/D8DGrRpRa5KuYQDD0jA b0cAn31AtJaO5kO5xFFKhU6zitAVpDny =GY4i -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
