<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Gail,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think you're not the first one to have tried
doing that, and run into the same problem. I definitely did myself a while
ago.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't believe that popplace.dbf is accessed
at all by that widget, but I could be wrong. It gets its geographic information
from a remote server. It may therefore not be too suitable for what you're
trying to do.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You could try the "LocateByAttribute" widget. This
allows you to search on the attributes of an object. You could add a layer with
placenames to search on.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>regards,</FONT></DIV>

[Chameleon] Locate widget</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><BR>Dear List,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am trying to get the Locate widget to work in Chameleon. I have put the
gazetteer information in the same format as the original popplace.dbf file and
kept the name the same. The popplace.dbf is in the directory
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\chameleon\htdocs\common\phpgeocoder\services and also in the
directory C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\chameleon\jisc\data. The locate widget in the map
client is working but not for the UK coverage it jumps across to Canada still,
therefore it seems like the new popplace.dbf file I created for the UK is not
being read by the client.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Is there some place else I should be changing? Or do I need to edit one of
the php files in the phpgeocoder directory? Any information about customising
the locate widget I would appreciate.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Kind Regards</DIV>
