2006-04-19 16:41:48 Nelson Pavlosky description Perhaps this article would be of use in making a Google Map of our chapters? http://www.earthcode.com/ajax/2006/04/rails_geocoding_and_google_map.html At any rate, I'd like to have a map of our chapters that is automatically created from the database, from the school's street address or latitude and longitude, whichever is easiest to automate. It should also feature a link to the chapter's website if it exists, etc. Perhaps this article would be of use in making a Google Map of our chapters? <a href="http://www.earthcode.com/ajax/2006/04/rails_geocoding_and_google_map.html">Rails, Geocoding, and Google Maps</a>.

2006-05-02 14:13:02 Nelson Pavlosky web: statusexplanation This is an an excellent start! I'm actually going to recommend that you put it up on the Chapters page... the chapters page is kind of ugly anyway, it can deal with a map that is rough around the edges. I think the "wow" factor is worth it ^_^ My main problem with it? The text doesn't seem to stay inside of the bubbles, it keeps escaping. Bizarrely, the problem fixes itself when I change the size of the text in my browser, but when I first load the page the text is always outside of its bubble.

Aranis was going to look into caching as per the Web Team meeting on May 3.

2006-05-12 12:52:36 Nelson Pavlosky web: statusexplanation As commented previously, Northeastern is incorrectly located in CT based on contact address, should be based on school address. Also, there is an intermittent bug with the speech bubbles where they get covered up by blocks of the map, but it seems to have gone away for now, I'll post screenshots if I see it again.

I'm satisfied with this map. If nobody sees any other bugs, I think it's safe to declare it finished. I don't see any flaws or functions that really need adding.
