Hi,
I think I've nearly got it, http://bit.ly/58aIwr
function customizeGeoMashupMap( properties, map ) {
var counter=0,
loopMap = function() {
if (++counter > properties.post_data.posts.length) counter
= 0;
GeoMashup.clickMarker( properties.post_data.posts
[counter].post_id );
setTimeout(function() { loopMap(); },10000)
};
loopMap();
}
can anyone see why its not quite working ? its very close, thanks to
help from Mike and Dylan.
Many thanks and best wishes,
tom
