A Web Part to place an Internet Search area on the page. Extended from the original Google Search to include Windows Live (default), Google and Yahoo. Logo's are provided as standard with configuration of your own logo's if required. Tested on WSS 3.0, MOSS & SharePoint 2010

Using this web part you can display points and locations on a Google map and get directions to an from that point. You can either manually enter an individual point or select a list from your Sharepoint site that holds the information that is required - ie. a field for the Buidling Name, its Longitude and its Lattitude.

Contains two controls: 1. asp.net control for placing google maps on an aspx page. 2. a webpart wrapper for MOSS. Feed the control with a path to and xml stream for showing pushpins on the map. A zoom rectangle(rubberband) feature has been added. Made quick and dirty, but works ;-) No easy deployment for moss yet. You'll have do this manual (But perhaps there will be). 1.Add to safe controls in web.config 2.register the new webpart in MOSS 3.request a free googlemap license from google maps and set this on the property in aspx or on the webpart. 4.1 there are a to folders with images and jscript which has to be placed in webroot download this under release (FoldesMustBeInWebRoot.zip) 4.2 consume ;-) remember to set width and height otherwise mapsize will be nothing and therefor nothing to see I or some contributor may want extend the control to have interfaces for retrieving maps from different sources e.g. MapServer/ArcIMS/WMS... Developers are welcome to join in. regards Robert Hede
