However, since it's not possible to know when worldKit has completed loading and can respond to JRSSComm , this won't necessarily work. What worldKit should do is trigger a javascript event when it's completed loading .. but that would take a little coding.</span><br><br>I think your idea of using a small php script is the most simple without doing any coding in worldKit .. a bit convoluted but
simple. Set dataurl to "georss.php?lat=#&long=#". The php code would be pretty simple, just echoing those two arguments within a RSS block.<br><br>Mikel<br><br>----- Original Message ----<br>From: Matt McClelland <matt@wildcolour.com><br>To: Discussion of worldKit use and development <worldkit-dev@lists.brainoff.com><br>Sent: Tuesday, April 11, 2006 1:44:20 AM<br>Subject: Re: [worldKit-dev] [SPAM] - Re: Location dot without rss.xml - Email found in subject<br><br><div>HI Mikel</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks for you reply.</div> <div> </div> <div>My last e-mail was not very clear - sorry about that.</div> <div> </div> <div>I was wanting to have a different location map for each page of my website.

<div>Hi</div> <div> </div> <div>I love worldkit - I have been playing with it for the last few days and I am very impressed - good work.</div> <div> </div> <div>I am building a bushwalking website (trail notes, location of campsite and weather information etc) and this tool will be very handy.</div> <div> </div> <div>One thing I was hopeing to do was to have a picture of the world with a dot on it for each article, to give it's location. I was hopeing to do this without having to create an xml document for each site.</div> <div> </div> <div>Is it possible to call worldkit with a url containing the GEO:lat/geo:long and title info. I am not a programmer but can hack my way around a bit of PHP code.</div> <div> </div> <div>Does anyone have an example or know how to do this??</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks </div> <div> </div> <div>Matt :)</div> <div>_______________________________________________<br>worldkit-dev mailing
