Hi, Your comments are always most welcome
Sue,
I can see the large-scale route maps, but not the detailed ones that used to exist - not even an error message, just white space.
The map page is still there in the same place (http://www.waterscape.com/map), but what seems to have been removed is the ability to add "query string parameters" (i.e the question mark and everything after) to the map url and zoom the view to that spot. The ability is still there under the covers because they are using the feature on other pages, just the old method of using the url is not working. Perhaps it will be reinstated???? Who knows.
From other missing features, dead links etc I suspect their site is in a state of flux (as is always the case when us web developers upgrade a site), so I'd wait a few days.
Hi sue the map is still there. im looking at it now, but sadley the blue that made it easier to follow the canals and rivers dosn't seem to be there any more, even when you zoom in. this is the address i'm at
http://www.waterscape.com/map/
hope thats some help
Well the maps have reappeared - with the blue lines. Only the "?x=441037&y=291346" construction doesnt work any longer. Is this deliberate?
To all on this,
Yeah, seems the url ending map is working OK, then you have to keep clicking the area for it to zoom in, and keep doing that. Waterscape did reply to my first email telling me that the url was the one ending in map, but I have written again asking for the parameters that Martin and Rob were talking about to be put back saving me and a lot of boaters valuable bandwidth when searching for an area.
I have yet to recieve a reply to that.
Sue
