Re: Making of zoomable webpage?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Ok, now I understand. I think I knew that all the standard features of a
Google Map would work in an I-frame. What I didn't think possible was the
customization the OP seemed to be asking for: "I should add markings to the
map with hyperlinks. Then when you click ex. a star symbol it will open a
new page where is explained what you find from
there etc." I didn't see how to add the stars and have them link to the
information or sites the OP wanted...at least not to dynamic Google Map that
you imported into the page via a I-frame. To a fixed static image of the
map, yes.

Anyway thanks for the clarification and the example of the imported Google
Map. If JFWL comes back it should show at least illustrate that.

David, you said:

"But with this said I am not sure the OP will be able to get everything he
wants as I don't know if you can add "star location links" to an imported
Google map in an I-frame.... "

So, I thought you meant that because the Google-map was called inside an
I-frame it may not respond to all the standard features of Google map.

Then I said I can see no reason why whatever works in a straight
Google-map
page would not work if that page was called-up in an I-frame. This was my
point.

Check out the following example:

From my observation an I-frame operates independently from its carrier
page,
so any function available to the document contained in an I-frame
should
work.

Of course, I could be proven wrong.

Too clumsy...yeah, right...you are too modest. You know more about
using
I-frames in a Publisher web than anyone else I know.

The only thing you need to keep in mind is that Pub 2000 generated its
code
all in one directory...the .html files were mixed in with the image
files,
and all were at the same directory level. In Pub 2003 and 2007 default
setting you have the home page at one level and then a thicket folder
containing all the other pages and images, usually the index_files
folder.
With that folder at another directory level, I always write absolute
links
rather than relative links to make sure I don't make mistakes. Also
Pub
2003
and 2007 default to the *.htm extension rather than the *.html like it
does
in Pub 2000.

But with this said I am not sure the OP will be able to get everything
he
wants as I don't know if you can add "star location links" to an
imported
Google map in an I-frame....

With a little knowledge of HTML, you could call up a Google zoomable
map
in
an iframe, rather than zooming the whole page.

I am too clumsy to explain to you how to do this, but I'm sure that
David
or
Don could.

It's

be able to zoom in and out somehow so the visitors can zoom the map
in
if
needed. Is this in some way possible? And the map is now in pdf
format.

Using Vista and publisher 2007.
