Thank you all. I am really feeling good after getting this much help. I am getting more fun in mapping.<br><br>Yes, I tried with the "data view" and I got all of my POIs. So, I am happy that they are not lost at least:-). The thing is, while loading the data view they showed me a warning that the portion of the map contains 133 POIs where only 100 POI is optimal for the browser to rended. Yet accepting that challenge, I could see them all.<br>
<br>Can you help me about another thing? Suppose, I have to tag a whole area as "Shantinagar". How can I do not? Here I am not setting a point, rather calling a part of the map as a place. How to do that? Can I add any color to a place, too?<br>
<br>And, how can I get the longitude and latitude of a point on the map?<br><br>Thanks and Regards,<br>Ishtiaque<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jul 23, 2010 at 6:31 PM, Mike N. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:niceman@att.net">niceman@att.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

not shown because no one has defined a way to render them on Mapnik. In
other cases, POIs that are too close to each other won't be shown because they
would overwrite something else and would cause a cluttered display.
You can try to select the "Osmarender" layer under the plus (+) sign to see if
they are shown there. The Osmarender layer updates at
different times than Mapnik and your updates may take longer to show
there.</font></div>

under the plus sign is also useful to check and display all POIs, regardless if
they are rendered.</font></div></div>
