gmap4 embeds
Posted: Fri May 20, 2011 9:39 am
so I tried everything to emebd a GMAP link with the buttons on the menu. All I got was the code in the message body.
Was that because I didn't do it first time, but after a message edit?
let's try again - I have a longitude/lattiude and a full URL to the map:
http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.p ... &z=15&t=t2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
do I embed that with the full tag? let's try that first (Gmap4 button)
http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.p ... &z=15&t=t2
and maybe with the gmap4LL button?
[Gmap4LL]http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.p ... &z=15&t=t2[/Gmap4LL]
or is this thing smart and only wants the LL from me, maybe with zoom level and map type?
[Gmap4LL]36.787471,-118.376801&z=15&t=t2[/Gmap4LL]
or just the two LL values?
36.787471,-118.376801
well, in preview, I see only the last one working. I suppose that's good enough for most, as it chose the map type and zoom level I would have picked. So what's the syntax for the regular gmap4 button? it appears to prepend the URL up to the q= part - is that where I throw in a gpx file URL?
