   Getting mouse coordinates
  I want to be able to select objects using the mouse and opengl. I know there is a way with i think glaux. I want to know if there is another way (that is easy?)? Does anyone know? Please Help! thank you! 
  One way is to use the GetCursorPos() to get the mouse coordinates, and adding some more code to your LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProc() that would handle events such as WM_LBUTTONDOWN (if you need that kind of control).HTH ;  if you wanna get your 3d mouse coordinates do a search for gluunproject() ;  How who i turn my screen coordinate into 3d space to select stuff like polygons? what is gluunproject() ?umm.. okay i added this after the fact. I looked up gluUnProject() on MSDN. I tell me what to supply but not how to use it. Does anyone know how?

NeHe has a tutorial on picking and object selection, and so does GameTutorials. Check them out!
