JavaScript Conversion of UK Eastings / Northings to Lat / Long
Hi,
I'm hoping someone can (again) help me with this one. I've got the same problem as others where I've got a copy of the OpenData Code-Point information which for some reason (feels deliberately unhelpful) has eastings and northings rather than the univerally acceptable latitude and longitude.
Looking at Chris Veness' very helpful website (http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong-gridref.html) I think he's got virtually everything needed there to provide a simple conversion function ... but as a non-JavaScript person I have hit a dead end as far as trying to get this to work.
One of the other groups pointed at another website that could produce a list of postcodes with lat and long added ... unfortunatelty my work internet access won't allow me to download that (ironic as this is a work app I'm working on!) so I have no idea if this would have been suitable.
Can anyone with considerably more JavaScript knowledge than me help me out and have a look at this one? I've basically got the postcode list, eastings and northings ... I need latitude and longitude to put on a map.
p.s. if anyone has figured out how to use new new google API v3 and put data points on it ... would love to know that too!!
