Create OpenLayers or Google map features from child page properties
Hi all,
I'm fairly new to Umbraco and am experiementing with a range of things I'd like to be able to do. One scenario I can't figure out and would like some help with is the following:
I have a Towns page template, which is going to have an OpenLayers or Google map on it. I want the map to show all Town Document Types in my CMS. The Town document type has 3 page properties - name, latitude and longitude.
How can I iterate through the child pages to add features to my client-side map. Currently, when working on this kinda of thing outside of Umbraco I would write this in Javascript. And from my learning about Umbraco so far, I only know how to step throug hthe child pages using XSLT.
Can anyone provide me with some rough code, ideas or links about how this would be best set up?
