Hi Holger and Robert: Let me say you that the two ways I wrote initially don't work in ASV neither in FF 1.5. About the getBBox() function. It is implemented in both (in ASV and FF), because I tried with simple examples and work well in both. However I can't solve my issue, yet. please I need help. regards Rodolfo
