What shall we call it? This is more important than usual as the script needs to be updated if it is moved. Map OpenSUSE Map Location Map Community Map? I think I would make the Coordinate page a subpage of whatever page is decided upon. > - a bugreport: your server doesn't like utf8, see "Nürnberg" for example > - the "balloon" on the map shows "ü" instead of "ü" This is all client-side scripting so to get around javascript security I do a little hack. As I can't get your browser to download a file (the coordinates) via javascript from a different domain than the html file that contains the javascript. ie I can't have my javascript in the html file hosted on my server download the coordinates directly from opensuse.org. which are here in their raw format http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Coordinates&action=raw I get around this by having a php file on my server with a single line that "includes" the coordinates "file" from opensuse.org <?php include("http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Coordinates&action=raw"); ?> So the script loads this "local" file http://peter.flodin.net/coordinates.php If you click on that you can see that the encoding has been lost. Interestingly IE displays this as the correct character on the map. If we hosted the html file on the opensuse.org domain we could retrieve the Coordinates directly as they are in the same domain. Or figure out how to include UTF-8 files with php. Peter 'Pflodo' Flodin.
