Hi Jerry

The page gets loaded once (am only loading it once during testing),
then the php gets called on the load, now once it is loaded, the
javascript UpdateMyMap() is called on the clients side repeatedly.

First time in it has

$pidpoint contains "unique_String_1234", this is then overwitten with a
difference value within the scope of this function, say it now stores
"unique_String_5678". But, when the client calls the UpdateMyMap()
again, $pidpoint contains "unique_String_1234" again. Thats not what I
wanted, I need it to store the value I set it in the
$pidpoint=$pidpointNext;
