Press ALT + Print Scrn while the browser window is selected, and then paste (shift-INS) the image in Paint (or some other graphics program), then save as PNG or GIF, then mail it to me at hessu@hes.iki.fi?Hessuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12550787353137508264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631429776292642259.post-16538238024364925882009-10-26T05:11:27.175+02:002009-10-26T05:11:27.175+02:00oh7lzb: I don't know what's going on... ...oh7lzb: I don't know what's going on... I'm using IE... Well anyways I had it set on Road maps and it did not work at all. (which is what I originally wanted it on)<br /><br />So since you suggested trying them all. I tried each one. Once I got to Terrain it made it work, so I tried Roadmap again and it worked too. But Satallite and Hybrid did not (same results as you)<br /><br />Im happy I got it working on Roadmap, not really sure why the other 2 aren't working.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10731579443467140560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631429776292642259.post-9016985152263341032009-10-25T15:34:31.665+02:002009-10-25T15:34:31.665+02:00Chris: Yup - there seems to be something wrong, bu...Chris: Yup - there seems to be something wrong, but I can't figure out what it is exactly. If I select hybrid or satellite image now, it fails to show on the profile page. If I select road or terrain map, it works just fine.<br /><br />The hybrid/satellite maps do show up on the application's configuration page, but not on the profile page.<br /><br />Is your problem exactly like this, or different? If you select road or terrain map, does it work?Hessuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12550787353137508264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631429776292642259.post-4662853127759767552009-10-23T23:27:24.168+03:002009-10-23T23:27:24.168+03:00I've got the same issue as Daryl.

It is supposed to be the name or callsign of the <B>visitor</B>, not the callsign which the visitor actually wants to track (that's entered later in the search box, or in the call= URL parameter). The visitor's name or callsign sometimes helps me debug problems with the service (to figure out which log file rows are related to a specific user), and generally makes me happy to see who's playing with the service.<br /><br />I might later consider dropping the "login" requirement, but I'll be dropping it completely then, not just for the facebook visitors. I've been thinking about doing it anyway.Hessuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12550787353137508264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631429776292642259.post-24026059808903289262009-04-14T06:34:00.000+03:002009-04-14T06:34:00.000+03:00I added this app to my facebook profile.

When I click on the link, I am taken to http://aprs.fi/?call=VK1IAN-9 and a map showing my location.<br />When someone else clicks on the link, the same http://aprs.fi/?call=VK1IAN-9 appears in the address bar but a screen asking for a callsign or nickname appears.<br />To go any further, the "guest" has to type my callsign in the box to get the map showing my position.<br />Interestingly, if that same user clicks on my facebook link later on, they are dropped straight into the map showing my position.<br />Is there a way for a Facebook friend who clicks on the APRS map in my profile to avoid the login screen and go directly to the map showing my location??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631429776292642259.post-26908446185549857072009-03-23T16:48:00.000+02:002009-03-23T16:48:00.000+02:00Great, I like this FB app. Thanks!!Great, I like this FB app. Thanks!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631429776292642259.post-56845153110488749492009-02-10T11:49:00.000+02:002009-02-10T11:49:00.000+02:00Doesn't load a map.
