Eeens..

You can now add location markers to the map by right-clicking where you want the marker. Which is quite handy if you just want to supply a short URL to a location on the map.
It’s been a bit of a nightmare trying to get this to work.
Sometimes you’d right-click and get a marker in the right place and other times you wouldn’t. I went down a lot of cul-de-sacs trying to solve this inconsistent behaviour. Finally I traced it down to a bug in the virtual-eath API code in the GetLeft() function. I’ve bypassed this api call by using additional javascript to get the maps location on the page. This bug’s been logged now, so should be removed in the next version of the MS VE API.
No other changes.

I’ve finally decided that the kaffenback isn’t the frame for me and ordered a roadrat from the lovely Cy at cotic.co.uk

 

The kaffenback is great, but in hindsight I should have bought an XL rather than L, as it’s just a little too cramped for me. Plus it’s an excuse for another bike :) Dunno how I’m going to wait a week for it to turn up though.
