I think we posted this in the wrong section and I thought we should ask in the support threads.
Myself and another member has seen this site and it seems to run off google maps. you can see the threads below. maybe someone could help with an idea on how to do this.

Guys, Anyone have an idea on how this is done or where they might offer something like this we could use in a block? I have search about in Google looking for this feature but did not see anything like it.

Says it is a "simple Java Script" over the google map. It allows you to highlite a route on the map, and save it. as in the attached picture.
The link below gives you a list of maps with instructions, member etc for Tennessee.

It is something I would love to offer on one of my sites..

Thanks

I have been reading the "how to" on google and you can see where googe will let you set the way points and drag the lines from way point A and B around to make another rout via same points. etc... I was able to follow some directions and make this simple map for my site and the added functions of moving zooming and setting the GPS point. but I am having problems adding the functions like adding the way points that can be added by others and moved around... it is all there in google but I am not good at any kind of coding. maybe someone here can look or is up to google speed.

have we started this thread in the wrong area?

thefley, it doesn't really help to cross post or post the same issue in more than one board, in fact it only causes more work for the support team members because they have to read the same information all over again.

Besides... you are already receiving help in your original topic.
