Thank you for the info - I will give it a try on a testbed installation :)

Hello Christopher,
Your example has the elements that I need :) Is this basic functionality
included in openlayers by default, or is it an addon?
Also - will openlayers work with mapserver by default - or through WMS
(I don't have experience with WMS)?
Both, but WMS is highly recommended, because using MapServer as CGI is
prone to hide errors due to misconfiguration. (Setting up WMS requires
only adding:
metadata
web
wms_srs "EPSG:4326"
end
end
to your mapfile to work minimally; everything else is optional.)
The recovery map example has a significant amount of code, but it is
using the trunk version of OpenLayers with no additional features. The
UI, some of the popups, the layer addition/removal are all additional
pieces added to that UI, but there are other toolkits (Like GeoExt) that
provide these in open source software as well.
Best Regards,
