Hi dave,
my understanding of this is the following:
in version 6, the Web interface relies on an opened map somewhere. So if at a
given moment you have only one instance of the map opened, then the Web i/f can
only choose this one and does not propose a choise.
If, at another given moment you have several instances of the map opened then
it asks you which one you desire to use.
The fact they are all R/W is, I suppose due to the fact the users that opened
the X-terminal GUIs had potentially R/W access to the map ((file permissions),
but only one at a time really has R/W access.
As for the Submap Explorer directly on the NetView box, I don't think it uses
the same machanism : it does not (I think) need an opened map, thus not asking
you to choose one.
Hope this helps.
