So I have a question about customizing the CSS for the GlocalResult. There's a page on it at: http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/reference.html#_class_GlocalResultCss which discusses the CSS associated with the .html property and states: "The purpose of this skeleton is to show you the major structural components so that you can alter the styling and display of a result. For instance, if you want to supress the "address", a CSS rule of #mycontrol .gs-localResult .gs-address { display : none; } would do the trick. "
That page in particular is associated with the google.search.LocalSearch, (AJAX Search API) and what I'm using is google.maps.LocalSearch. I think the CSS is slightly different, but the CSS for google.maps.LocalSearch is at: http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/localsearch/gmlocalsearch.css and I've been able to fix some display problems using styles based on that. Here's what I'm wondering: I've seen a number of places that it violates the terms of use to: "10.7 delete, obscure, or in any manner alter any warning, notice (including but not limited to any copyright or other proprietary rights notice), or link that appears in the Service or the Content;" (This is from the Google Maps TOS) There are also things in the Google AJAX Search TOS that are similar. However, there is the option ({resultList: google.maps.LocalSearch.RESULT_LIST_SUPPRESS}) to suppress the results list, which obviously removes the links that appear in the results list. This seems like a designed feature that violates the TOS if read strictly. I guess maybe in this case Google itself is suppressing display of the result list so it's not a violation? But if someone used CSS to suppress display of something as described in the AJAX search documentation, that would seem to be a violation. Anyway, when I implemented it, I had some minor formatting issues that I fixed with CSS (for one, 12px is not an acceptable font size), and was wondering if it is OK to hide the "More results" link from the remaining results list popup as well. You can see the map I've implemented at: http://www.healthypetmobilevet.com/area.shtml My thought was that would be a violation, but if it doesn't have to be there I'd get rid of it to keep things as simple as possible for users. -Brian P --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
