    I assume you want to use MySQL for pointers to map data-- however that would be awfully expensive in terms of resources and creating the actual maps. If not Google's map data-- whose data would you use?

    Q...

    From my understanding you just want to write own script to generate a sitemap for google. I created one recently for one of my scripts. My script doesn't use a database but if you look at where it loops you would just put own code to get the data from mysql.

    It will atleast get you started.


    <?php
    echo "<p>GENERATING SITEMAP</p>";
    echo "Please wait...<br><br>";

    if (!$xmlfile = fopen("../sitemap.xml", "w")) {
    echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
    exit;
    }

    //
    // Write main website
    //
    fwrite($xmlfile,
    "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>
    <urlset xmlns=\"http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84\">
    <url>
    <loc>{$website_url]}/</loc>
    <lastmod>".date('Y-m-d')."</lastmod>
    <changefreq>daily</changefreq>
    <priority>0.7</priority>
    </url>
    ");


    //
    // Write all of links
    //
    $stagarray = explode(",", $searchkeywords);
    for ($i = 0; $i < count($stagarray); $i++) {
    //echo '<li><a href="'.$website.'/tags/'.$stagarray[$i].'.html">'....file, "</urlset>"); fclose($xmlfile); ?>

    i also trying to do that one and i created the algoritm. thats is slices the photos from google map and rename in my format as beloving picture ilkzoom.jpg

    but i am thinking that will be as pyramid when the zoom in and it has to be limitation for each zooms to not allowing clik up,down,left,right.
