Make a new table in database and use a form to submit the info into this table and then show google maps api? Can I do this? Because then the info is inside Drupal and I can use it some other places.

When the info is in the new table I can then use the code I know about how to use Google Maps API outside Drupal by making a "page" with the info from the new table to show a site like this one http://www.tinemuller.dk/drupal/node/715.

Help with Firebug

tinem's picture

I have tried making this http://www.tinemuller.dk/drupal/node/1097 but can't figure out what the problem is and can't figure out how to use Firebug anymore. Could someone with understanding of Firebug please test what's wrong, please?

It's only a testsite to see if it could be done so don't mind the layout. The map is here http://www.tinemuller.dk/drupal/node/1097 and the different info I typed in can be seen here http://www.tinemuller.dk/drupal/copenhagen.

Will there be problems doing it this way?

Just discovered that I hadn't been giving the CCK permission for these filelds so Anomymous users could not see the info from this fields but it's ok now - http://www.tinemuller.dk/drupal/copenhagen.

No one has an opinion about this before I go further developing my map - it's really IMPORTANT to know please?
