Google Map incorporation

[#1]

Hi, I want to attach a Google map in my dashboard.

I have seen many links posted before but they are not helping me. Is there anyone who has incorporated google maps in a dashboard recently because google seems to be changing some url's associated with maps.

I also want to use the zoom functionality.

Please help.

TIA

Hi, Have you tried the Step by Step guide?

attached.

Thank you!

Can you please attach the source file as well.

this one has Mapquest and GoogleMap with sliders zoom up/zoom down

I changed the code for the background colour to

='http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center='  & num(var_mid_lat,

'##############', '.', ',' )   & ','

& num(var_mid_long,

'##############', '.', ',' )   & '&zoom=$(var_zoom)'  &

'&maptype='&var_maptype  &

'&size='&map_size_x&'x'&map_size_y  & '&sensor=false'

And it worked. Thank you!

Any idea on zoom functionality though?

if you want  a slider zoom functionality, have a look at the other attachment i sent. Nov 7.

it has a table called "%zoom_level:", it conatins the zoom values, you can assign to listbox, or slider
