Hi, I am developing a new website, therefore I am working locally. I needed to add a Google map in the "where we are" page, with just the possibility to get directions, therefore I decided to use the Google Map API code.
I am not a programmer, therefore I followed the instructions provided by Google and added a code snipped I found on another website to create a "Get Directions" window. I use Drupal 6.14 and for this task, I prefer to not use any specific module (I mean without GMap, Location etc. ) I copied the HTML in a "page" content type, used FULL HTML and everything is working fine, but... first the code: <p><iframe width="753" scrolling="no" height="480" frameborder="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps? f=d&source=s_d&saddr=&daddr=Viale+San+Concordio,+1097N, +55100+Lucca +LU&hl=en&geocode=&mra=ls&sll=43.828993,10.496593&sspn=0.011471,0.01929&g=Viale +San+Concordio,+1097N,+55100+Lucca +LU&ie=UTF8&ll=43.828993,10.496593&spn=0.005418,0.00912&z=9&output=embed" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"></iframe><br /><small><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); text-align: left;" href="http:// maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=embed&saddr=&daddr=Viale +San+Concordio,+1097N,+55100+Lucca +LU&hl=en&geocode=&mra=ls&sll=43.828993,10.496593&sspn=0.011471,0.01929&g=Viale +San+Concordio,+1097N,+55100+Lucca +LU&ie=UTF8&ll=43.828993,10.496593&spn=0.005418,0.00912&z=9">View Larger Map</a></small></p> <form action="http://maps.google.com/maps"; method="get" target="_blank"><p><b>Get Directions to inBusiness Snc</b> <br /> <span class="descriptor">Start address:</span> <br /> <input type="text" size="40" maxlength="40" name="saddr" value="Street, City, State, Zip" onfocus="this.value='';" class="descriptor" id="saddr" /></ p><p><br /> <input type="SUBMIT" value="Get Directions" class="descriptor" /> <input type="hidden" name="daddr" value="43.828993, 10.496593" /></p></form> On my desktop, with a 19" screen, the map is showing perfectly, at the same time, I checked how it displayed in my Thinkpad (15") and surprisingly, the map did not fit the screen, I mean the map size seems to remain the same (753x480) therefore it displays much bigger and outside the webpage layout, it doesn't resize according to the screen which displays it. As I said, I am not a programmer therefore is difficult for me to say what and if the above snippet misses something, or possibly another reason?? In addition, would you please tell me how to add the following: 1) Bottom right of the map, I'd like the "Overview" function so that the user can move the map on a wider scale. 2) When the map is moved around, how can I get a "reset" button that brings it back to the center? 3) How to add extra info to the marker? At the moment only the address appears, but I'd like to add my company name. Thank you for your help!
