Tracers.
 

Hi all,

I'm in my final year at uni and for my project I would like to write a basic tracer programme (as basic as it can be). This is with the intention that I could then visualise the path the data takes to travel between the 2 campus's via a OS map, (hopefully if the uni will give me the information I need).

Problems:

I'm not amazing at programming, i can hold my own with a bit of effort but have only really programmed in pascal, so I was looking for some tutorials on how this could be done but cannot find any, or some source code to have a look at.
Does any one know where I could find these?

Also can a tracer programe be ran via a web page?

Any ideas or help would be much appreciated as im struggling.

THanks
DEano
