I have been looking for something and I think Hotspots is very close to what I need...
There are a TON of Google Map integration solutions that will let you click on a Marker and display some cute thing in a box - some even with some text and pictures but what I need is:
A Google Map that can integrate in Joomla preferably via a Component (or if need be a Module) where once way points/markers/locations have been entered will allow a side module or a module below to reflect the new data associated with that location when you click on it [via AJAX]... or other way of saying this:
There is a map on the page with 3-20 markers, when you click on a marker instead of the popup appearing on the map it instead updates via Ajax a column/sidebar on the right or below the map. This sidebar would contain a little bit of text and 4-6 images per location.
What I am trying to do is very basically this: http://travelogic.intios.com/trips/chile-argentina/ - if you click on the ugly markers, the content changes on the right...
I know that with quite a bit of CSS work I can made the sidebar wider which will help with the images insertion [I realize it's not going to be a particularly pretty solution but we will work with it] - the real issue is the contact changing FROM a marker/data point being clicked which is currently not available...
Thanks everyone,
Emmanuel.
P.S.: Totally planning on buying the Pro version - just want some feedback on if it can be done and/or how soon it can be implemented and/or since it sounds like an awesome feature if the author would add it!
