This is an old thread but very important for me right now. I want to set the initial view (coords and scale) of a map and have been struggling conceptually with how to implement this. I have a page containing an iframe. The iframe's src attribute is the path to a MapGuide web layout, e.g.
/mapguide/mapviewerajax/?WEBLAYOUT=Library://Trial/Trial.WebLayout&LOCALE=en Originally I thought that I would need to interrupt the initial map load to dabble with the web layout's XML, but http://tinyurl.com/6jkdyj talks about creating a copy of the web layout, making the desired changes, and saving it to the session, and using the copy. So would the following be the right way to go? 1. Change the main page's iframe to have no src attribute specified 2. On page load, call a PHP script to create a web layout in the session based upon the one in the library 3. Dynamically set the iframe's src to be something like "...?WEBLAYOUT=Session://..." I hope one of you seasoned MapGuide developers can put me straight on this! Thanks for your time.
