[Geomoose-users] Popup dilemma

[Dan Little]

HI Mike,

Try this...

<popup shape='circle' coords='[shpxy xf=","
yf="," proj=image],5'>

Also, what version are you running? The most current for MS4W has a known bug.  Email me and I can send you the patch to fix the popup error bugs on IE7.

Greetings,
 
I am trying to create a point layer for our law enforcement folks to
quickly show location and contact information of officers living near an
incident site. The idea is to search for the address of the incident, center
the incident site on the map at a scale of about 1:50000. Then, activate the popup
flag and mouse over the nearest officer’s residence symbol for contact
information. Everything seems to work except the popup stuff. 
 
In IE7 I get the popup information to display with the mouse over the
point or any where along a line from the point to the upper left corner of the
map. Usually any map redraw caused by using the full extent, previous zoom or
next zoom will cause the popup flag to turn red. A map redraw using zoom in,
zoom out, Go!, or the scale box will turn the popup flag yellow.
 
In Firefox 2, on startup the popup flag is red, if I click on the Go! Button
to redraw at the same scale, the popup flag turns from red to yellow. If I
click on the popup flag it turns green, but no popup info appears when I mouse
over the point or anywhere on the map. Problems with map redraws are similar to
IE7.
 
Popups for other features seem to work fine with an occasional red flag
caused by redraws. All of these popups deal with poly data instead of point
data.
 
Following is the code for the point popup info:
 
<popup shape='point' coords='[shpxy xf=","
yf="," proj=image]'>
            <title>[Name]</title>
            <item title="">[Address1]</item>
            <item title="">[Address2]</item>
            <item title="">[Pri_Phone]</item>
            <item title="">[Sec_Phone]</item>
            <item title="--- Emergency contact ---
"></item>
            <item title="">[EC_Name]</item>
            <item title="">[EC_Phone]</item>
</popup>
 
Can anyone point me to the problem, or share successful code that does
something similar to what I am trying to do?
 
Thanks much.
