One thing that bothers me a bit: On every update I have to re-upload the product file but that means all my translations are lost. Isn't there a way to prevent it? If you split up the language part I'll send you my German translation so that you can put it into the downloadable archive. :)

And now some things that came into my mind on upgrading my map:

The templates still are quite messy and at some point the even don't validate as XHTML anymore.
You are using '<BR>' instead of '<br />' and 'readonly' instead of 'readonly="readonly"'
The styling of the textboxes can better be done with CSS.

Besides that I have an idea to further improve the phrase support:
From what I see there are 4 places in the code where you are using an alert and those alerts are all hardcoded. :)
vB is using a method where the PHP variable is passed to a JS variable making it possible to use phrases in the JS code.

And speaking of the JS code: Wouldn't it be easier to make a new file with all the Javascript instead of placing them directly into the template?


Tell me what you think about my comments! :)

I have one problem now: I can't update/change my location because the 2 input boxes won't change and the coordinates remain the same. :(

Code cleaning is on the list for 2.0.3

Are you still having that update problem?

My marker does show nicely http://www.pagodentreff.de/diskussio...hp?do=showmain



Your marker is somewhere in northern syberia. it's because of the default zoom you don't see.

Just center on Germany and hit update.

Shortly after upgrading to 2.02 I promoted my Moderator to a Super Moderator. His pin is still the colour for a Moderator. How do I update this?

Thanks in advance.

That's indeed something that isn't automatically detected yet.

The users should go to his "your entery" page, make a small change and hit the update button.

After that it should be fine

I can't confirm it's working! :(

When I am on the main page and I scroll around the 2 input fields with the coordinates do change. But when I want to add/edit my location and I scroll around the map the values of the 2 fields don't change and thus my location isn't updated when I click 'update'.

Even when I change the zoom level the input field containing the zoom level still has '6' as a value.


I tried it on Safari and Firefox (the latest) and it didn't work..

Edit:

This must be an Mac OS X thing.. I tried it on Windows XP using the Internet Explorer and it worked fine. I am now going to install Firefox on Windows just to be sure. :)

It must be a Firefox/Safari problem.. I have the same problems with Firefox running on Windows XP.

I see it now

*starts the code dig *

work around for you is to delete your entry and reset. The insert doesn't have the problem


I found it

There is a small name error with name and id in the display map IE ignores that but FF doesn't

The version now online has the firefox fix included. Sorry for that one.

Just reload the plugin after downloading the latest file version and it should be fixed

Cheers for the update Stony, What was the issue please?

Well,

If you dynamically set form elements IE uses the name field and firefox needs the ID field.

So you have to set both equal in the code

In the URL form element in de vbgooglemap_display_yourlocation there was a difference in the name and id attribute of the tag so firefox was trying to update the wrong element which already existed on the page but hidden.

Because firefox cannot update two form elements with the same name/id he just stops updating anything.

Why oh why did i have to ask pmsl....none of that made sense to me...
Thanks anyway, im sure someone somewhere will understand that lol :)

Cheers m8, great hack :)

And that was an easy one ;)
