How does the map work?

Hi Chris,

Top build, very useful - however I cannot for the life of me work out how you are setting the coordinates for the google map - could you elaborate please?

Cheers

Si

Hi Si,

Thanks, glad you find it useful (I wish you had 70 karma and could vote for it ;-) )

Have a look at Line 8 of /scripts/default.js
```
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(55.86725, -4.257231);
```
The easiest way to find the latitude and longitude of a point on GoogleMaps is to right click and choose 'What's Here'. The values should appear in the search box.

Cheers

Chris

Ahh haa - never looked at the script, cheers for that.

Don't worry, once i've built up the Karma, i'll be voting - tried before but as you said, i'm a lowly figure :-)
