Thanks,
and apologies for posting code and its relevance to this forum.
Managed to get it working though. Everything was fine with your
suggestion Andrew, except
walkingDriving.travelMode=eval(document.getElementById
("travelMode").value);
which I changed to...
travelMode=eval(document.getElementById
("travelMode").value);
No need for the walkingDriving variable.
Posting code again I know, but thought this would help other people
wanting to implement something like this
Many thanks
