TOPIC: Use field data in other widget?

I have a number of custom fields like date. Is it possible to pull this out so I can use this when integrating another widget?

Example : I want to show weather for a certain date contained in a custom field or I want to use the long/lat in another script.

Thanks

Hey Marcus,
the data for the custom field is saved in the Hotspot table (there is customfields column) so if you get the hotspots to display, you can display the values for this hotspots.
Look at /components/com_hotspots/views/hotspot/view.html.php and /components/com_hotspots/views/hotspot/tmpl/default.php
in the view.html.php we get the configuration of the custom fields for the category and in default.php you can see how we output the values.

Regards,
Daniel
