Blosxom Plugin - Google Maps Tag
Linking to Google maps is nice. Jumping through the hoops to get the target
URL isn't so much. This
plugin allows you to use either a raw postcode (it's built for the UK) or a
named location that will get expanded out to a full Google Maps URL.
You can use any of these short cuts:
- <gmap "office">
- <a href="gmap:EC1V 3QR">
- <gmap>EC1V 3QR</gmap>
For full details have a look at the Google Maps Tag Blosxom Plugin source. Note: The links generated by this plugin use maps.google.co.uk, if you don't like this (if you want to use the American site for example) then hack the source.
