Simple Match Fishing Forum

I have been working on adding all our venues to one map with the ability to click on the venues and get direction to the venue from your own house.
It is not finished yet but I showed Mouse tonight after he mentioned that he needed something like this.

Those that ain't familiar with google maps here are some shortcuts...

double click left mouse button = zoom in
double click right mouse button = zoom out
hold left mouse button down to drag(move) the map
drag the vertical up to zoom in, down to zoom out
Boxes in the top right give you different views. I find Hybrid to be the best.

Click on the marker and it will give you information along with Directions: To here - From here.
If you click "To here" a box will pop-up, add your postcode to that box and then click "Get Direction"
A new window will open with a route, you can print that off or get a rough idea on which way to go. Simple.

This is just the base at the moment, lots to add. Will have a few maps.
One for Yale, one for HanKat and if Tony wants one too then he can  :)

have one for canals to [highlight]work[/highlight] dogs along

What kind of work would the dogs be doing
A bit of mowing and strimming maybe or maybe picking up the dog crap that some people leave behind..
If there any good at painting, there's a few barges that could do with a lick of paint down my cut

Will you be putting tk's house on there so i can send him some flowers

Just made it so you can zoom in and out using the scroll wheel on your mouse.
Note: You'll notice the webpage scrolls along with the map. But its not that bad

whoops my mind is fcuked up with the thought of having to go back to work tomoorrow

Added some pictures also, you may find when it loads for the first time that its outside the box. Just click anywhere on the map then click on the marker again. It just while the code writes the picture size.

Got to add a few more venues when I get postcodes. And need pictures for a few of the venues.

Excellant job mate

Does it work ok for you mate. Have tried getting direction ?

Perfect mate  

Works fine tried it out

147 mi – about 2 hours 41 mins to 'The Willows' from mine, didnt give the option of the 2 ways to go (via M4 Cardiff or the way we go SS), it just sent me M4 way which is not the pretty way!

Theres a button to check at the top Gem "Avoid highways" Try that...

Nice one Drynet. You got no excuse for been late now

On most of the venues, you will need to zoom in to the end point and then click "Satellite" view.
And there will be a dirt track going to the pools.
If I put the marker on the pool it would screw the directions up as it couldn't work out how to go across fields lol
