BB Code Enhancements - Google maps BBCode

Hi all

I've made a Custom BBcode to be able to insert any kind of google map into the forum posts, so the Plugins I tried were'nt working as we expected.

I post the code, I hope it can be useful for anyone.

Security problems, improvements and tunning will be apreciated...

I used the tag [gmap], and inside you have to copy the code for the HTML inclusion you can copy when you click the link icon in the map:

<script type="text/javascript">
function ckURL()
  {   if ((u.indexOf("http://")!=u.lastIndexOf("http://"))||u.lastIndexOf("http://")!=0){return false;}
      if (u.indexOf('"')>=0) {return false;}
      if (u.indexOf("http://maps.google")!=0){return false;}
      return true;
  }

t='';incr=0;t_i="{param}";
t_n_q=t_i.replace(/&quot;/g,'"');

if(t_n_q.indexOf("91;url")>0)
{ if(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url="')>0){t=t_n_q.substr(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url="')+8,t_n_q.length);t_n_q='';}
  if(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url=')>0) {t=t_n_q.substr(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url=')+7,t_n_q.length);t_n_q='';a=t.replace(/93;/g,'"');t=a;incr=2;}
  if(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url')>0)  {if (t_n_q.indexOf('93;')==(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url')+8)){t=t_n_q.substr(t_n_q.indexOf('91;url')+11,t_n_q.length);a=t.replace(/91;/g,'"');t=a;}}
}
else
{ t=t_n_q.substr(t_n_q.indexOf('src="')+5,t_n_q.length);}
u=t.substr(0,t.indexOf('"')-incr);
up=u.replace(/amp;/g,'');u=up;

if (ckURL())
{ document.write('<iframe width="640" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="'+u+'"></iframe>');}
else
{document.write("<p><b>Wrong map URL, edit the post to change it.</b></p>Reload the page when finished to check if correct.");}
</script>

The others settings for the BBCode are:

Use {option}: -> No
Remove Tag If Empty -> Yes
Disable BB Code Within This BB Code -> Yes
Disable Smilies Within This BB Code -> Yes
Disable Word Wrapping Within This BB Code ->Yes

Please, mark as installed if it worked and you are using it.

Hope it helps!

Seeing as the developer hasn't been online since 2008, I'll post how I do Google maps...

AdminCP > Custom BB Codes > Add New BB Code

Title: Google Maps
BB Code Tag Name: map
Replacement:

<div align="center" style="margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px;">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="thead" style="text-align:center"><iframe width="100%" height="600" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?q={param}&ie=UTF8&hq={param}&t=h&output=embed"></iframe></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Use {option}: No
Remove Tag If Empty: Yes
Disable BB Code Within This BB Code: Yes
Disable Smilies Within This BB Code : Yes
Disable Word Wrapping Within This BB Code: Yes
Disable Automatic Link Parsing Within This BB Code: Yes

Use would be:
[map]Sacramento, CA[/map]
[map]Sacramento, CA to San Diego, CA[/map]
[map]pig trail harley davidson[/map]

It works great for us. I also did a [chatmap] version that limits the size to 200px for use in the chatbox.

You can add "&iwloc=near" to the end of the src= code to disable the name bubble in the map. This is very helpful in my [chatmap] version due to its smaller iframe size.
