Google Maps

So you've added a Google search button to a screen to search for a customer. Want to get launch Google Maps from within TIMSS/Personify? Do the same thing (launch a browser window) only pass the address in the URL string.

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=1919+gallows+rd+22182

The information in the URL above after "q=" is the address we are querying on with pluses instead of spaces.

Want directions? Then you’d use the start address (SADDR) and destination address (DADDR) to pass both addresses.

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en
&saddr=1919+gallows+rd+22182
&daddr=1600+Pennsylvania+Ave+NW+20006
