Nicely, after a little playing I've changed the var address line in
the javascript at the top of the locator HTML:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function searchLocations() {
var address = document.getElementById('addressInput').value;
geocoder.getLatLng(address, function(latlng) {
if (!latlng) {
alert(address + ' not found');
} else {
searchLocationsNear(latlng);
}
});
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
to
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function searchLocations() {
var address = document.getElementById('addressInput').value + ',
UK';
geocoder.getLatLng(address, function(latlng) {
if (!latlng) {
alert(address + ' not found');
} else {
searchLocationsNear(latlng);
}
});
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Works a treat.
many thanks for your help
Cheers,
Tony
