This would be such a cool feature.... :up:

Honestly, I think a better way of going about a hack like this is just to have a map of the globe, and let each user place a pin on the map where they want their location to be, and then when you hover over it it will say the username + the city/country (if applicable) they live in. Then one someone clicks on the map it just echos all this information that prestored. I had a hack like this on differet bb software and it worked great.

Wouldn't it be funnier to be a mod of this forum and delete such postings? :devious:

Would love for the US map :-D

Pseudomizer - thats an excellent idea i must say.

I was having a think .... what if you left the people on their boards select the map they want ... and have a dropdown with locations on it that the Admin can specify using an small sql table .... like say 3 or 4 bits of info ... dropdown location, Xvector , Y vector. This would mean there would be less locations available to the user ,and the admin could set where on the chosen map drop down was.

Im not sure what you have done already , but the idea is excellent , and id love to see you get this working properly.

Thanks for the efforts either way

Hello DjTaz,

i have a problem at the moment. Please read the following posting first https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....3&postcount=76 and then i can tell you that this new system i have found is based on the german map only. I have not found any US maps so far for this specific system.

In addition i receive complaints about my BETA version because many people do not have access to the PEAR section of the webserver and their providers are declining installing it.

I am back to the roots at the moment evaluating multiple systems which can handle heavy load. My version can NOT handle heavy load without killing the SQL server in terms of performance.

Best regards,
