[Cartoweb-users] several shortcuts..

[Valerio Noti]

Thank you very much Oliver,
I'll try your suggestions for new plugin.
As another way for solving this problem do you think possible one of these 
solutions ?

1)
I save several views with view plugin and I call cartoweb project with a 
combo box changing the url with javascript

2)
is it possible to run via url a cartoweb project directly with coordinates 
values?
 (i.e. .../htdocs/italy.php?bbox=x1,y1,x2,y2)
This would be the best solutions for me....

Thanks again

Valerio
