You probably need to explain a bit better what you are wanting to do here so that someone can better answer. >Also I'm trying to set up a website with osm maps integrated within it as >opposed to just hyperlinks to maps. Is this possible and if so can anyone >explain the best way to do it? Embedding OSM maps where the map tiles are provided by OSM is ok as long as it's not going to see heavy use. If you expect a lot of visitors then you need to generate and host your own map tiles created from the OSM data.
