Geolocating etc

By Toledoh - January 29, 2012

Hi Guys,

It's probably just a case of brain explosion, but I can't get my head around the following.

I have a bunch of properties in a table within CMSB which have the long/lat identified via the geolocating plugin. All good.

I want to have a page where a user can type in an address and click search.

The results page will show a google map, with the address searched for shown by an icon - whether or not that address is in the admin.

The same map should show all the properties listed in the table with a different icon.

Is that achievable?
Cheers,

Tim (toledoh.com.au)

Hi Tim,

Yes, this is possible, but it would take some customization. First, the code sounds like a combination of the example pages sample_form (geocode a typed in address) and sample_search (do a proximity search based on a given address). It would also take a little javascript customization to change the icons between the two.

If you'd like us to take a look at this for you, please email consulting@interactivetools.com with a list of everything you would need the page to do and we can go over some options.

Hope this helps,
