As it uses a xml-file to store the information, it should be quite
easy to extract it from a database if there are fields in the input
form for it. For my test I mostly used the ones which put their
coordinates in decimal form (this is the format I need).
I had a look at the documentation and there are quite nice
capabilities, e.g. displaying diferent groups of targets (for each
event a group?). So I'll give it a try over the weekend to show more
of it, so we can decide if it's useful for the wwp in some way.
Will be again on http://www.rundumadum.at/test/globe/globetest.html
Bernhard: Maybe it can be combined with your map? Giving an overall
look? I like the detailed view of your map, which the globe
unfortunately lacks of.
