Link to a marker

[jeromebg]

Hi there, and a big bravo for your component/plugin wich looks great !
Is there a way to make a link (in an article for exemple) to open a marker ?
If am not clear here is a situation:
I display a map with severals markers on it.
I would like to put texte above with the name of the locations and a link like "Show this location" an I would like the google bullet to pop up then...
Is it possible ?
I looked to the links wich all looks like javascipt:void(0)
Thanx for your help !!!

Hi, you can make e.g. 10 maps and every map get one link, then you can create (via plugin) link to every map.

Yes, that's a solution but I would like the google bullet to pop up automaticly ...
Is there a way ?
Thanx for your reply !

By the way, the popup (or linked) template has a problem with images in the desription, the url is wrong it puts the url of the component before the url of the images (am not sure to be clear???)

"that's a solution but I would like the google bullet to pop up automaticly"

Hi, I tested it now and everything works for me

maybe I don't understand it well:

By the way, the popup (or linked) template has a problem with images in the desription, the url is wrong it puts the url of the component before the url of the images (am not sure to be clear???)

If I paste some image into the description and the map is displayed through the popup link, the image is displayed correctly ???

that's right, in the normal view (view=map) everything is ok.
now is you use the view=link the description of the markers are displayed but if you have an image in it, the path is wrong, it puts component/option,com_phocamaps/id,5/tmpl,component/view,map before the path of the image so you have http://www.mywebsite.com/component/opti ... yimage.jpg instead of www.mywebsite/images/stories/myimage.jpg

Hi, try to disable SEF or enable the CORE SEF (I have tested it without SEF or with CORE SEF enabled)

Hi, what exactly you mean:

So how did you finally manage that the description above the marker is automatically displayed when loading the map?

there is description for the marker and for the map.
