As mentioned in previous posts, both AOL and Yahoo allow you to submit an HTTP request, which includes a user name, in order to determine web presence. Microsoft provides the MessengerAPI, but it seems to me that you have to have an account

      • I have a custom icon for my pushpins that "points" to a different pixel than the center of the icon. I've seen a number of posts that claim that the solution for changing the offset is to apply a style which sets the icon's positioning to absolute and shifts, say, top and left. This appears to work in v5, at least for positioing the icon. However, the hover box doesn't seem to respect th

The terrain around the area i am studying is quite flat, but i need to see it in greater relief for the purposes of gravity calculation. Any suggestions/solutions welcome!
