 |  |  | How to link to google maps
< on 9/29/2010 4:20 AM >
|  | | | I'm sure we've all seen someone post a link that looks like this:
http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=29.976282,31.131027&spn=0.008175,0.012918&t=k&hl=en
The link breaks because UER thinks it ends at the comma. To make this link work just replace the two commas with %2C
http://maps.google...0.012918&t=k&hl=en
And UER passes the link correctly. Now that you know how to successfully post a google maps link use Bing instead. It's better.

Thanks! What's the bbcode for embarrassed face?
I'm a little surprised this is allowed since it can lead to some trickery. Av even made it sound like he was going to take this kind of functionality out in this thread:

I'm pretty sure that google's better for ariel & street view, and they're just starting to catch up with bing's bird-eye view. Bing's days are numbered unless they do something drastic.

Bing's aerial view has more detail in most of the areas I've used it in but street view is tough to beat. Google does everything right!

It's more of a proof of concept. These kinds of tricks do work when done well. Hell, I bet even something done this poorly would trick more than a few people if it was functional.

If only it were functional...I really wanted to send you various swear words via the form submit.

It's also wrong. Compare to a real UER tab. There is no 'login timeout' that I've seen, and the sidebar is wrong because much of the page seems to be a static image.
Mostly, any idiot who doesn't mouseover links before clicking deserves it.

| | | | If you're picking it apart then you missed the address bar and the lack of footer. My goal wasn't to make a perfect replica of UER in 30 minutes.

I've made this correction and used this link to make the page "self proofing". Now you no longer have to scribble on screen shots of it with a red crayon.
