I think I understand. I set up the XSL to format the XML list of stations horizontally (instead of vertically) using a simple table structure. Unfortunately, it still jumped in the same way ... which of course is still the problem.

New approach. I tried sending a javascript instruction to the iframe instead:

[INDENT][="Courier New"]window.location('#25'); [/][/INDENT]

And it looks like it worked for just a flicker ... but then it replaced the iframe's contents with a page that just consisted of the text "#25" and returned an error in the javascript console. I think I'm on the right track here ... but what am I doing wrong that causes the iframe's contents to be replaced.

As always ... any help is appreciated. Many thanks!

Say the map is horziontal, going from #1 (far left) to #30 (far right), instead of calling just the stations.xml file as default, can you set it like stations.xml#15 as default as 15 would be the center anchor.

Sorry if is confusing you, is hard not being able to see the problem but I hate flash with a passion and would rather play in traffic than have it

For each of the stations in Flash, the code looks something like:

[="Courier New"]on (press) {
getURL ("/maps/stations.xml#25","infoframe");
}[/]

Where "infoframe" is the name of the iframe containing that XML file I referenced in my first post. I'm not sure what you mean by "aligning it to the center" ... aligning what to the center? Moreover, I'm not even sure what a "centered anchor" is.

Apologies for making your life difficult.

I can't see it because it's done in flash, but can you align it to the center or to a centered anchor?
