Hi
I'm looking for advise to solve the following challenge.
I have many wiki pages with Google maps destination already know via a
template call. I'd like this template producing something similar to
the inputbox extension, where people will fill their zip code, and by
clicking the "go" button, a Google map will be created with their zip
code as the start address.
The Google maps extension use only Lon/Lat data, and this doesn't fit
in my requirement. There is also ricks Google maps extension that
doesn't do the job.
I'm thinking hacking the inputbox to achieve my goal, but because my
php experience is very limited, I wonder if there is an easier way to
accomplish this.
Thank for any input.
