I just started working with the OpenGeo Suite. I'd really like to use it for a County web map, but have a couple questions...
1) Is there a way to add a lat/lon or other X/Y location to the URL and have the map center and zoom to the point? Something like "?lat=46.265&lon=-90.206&zoom=7" at the end of the URL.
2) Is the Query tool available in a published map? It's not in the Choose Tools window when publishing.
Thanks.
=== UPDATE ===
I will drop part 2 and stick with part 1.
I guess I forgot to mention the crucial bit that I'm working in GeoExplorer. I did have the tag, but don't fault anybody for missing it.
The bounding box isn't working in GeoExplorer. I have the map published in an iframe. Here's a screenshot of the test page without the bbox... i.imgur.com/Wc022Ee.jpg.
Here's a screenshot with the bbox... i.imgur.com/7MES4cn.jpg. That's just a blank map that hides behind the real map and only shows up when the real map doesn't.
I do have a correct bbox... i.imgur.com/MbAOgVD.jpg in the code.
(I guess I need a higher rep before I can add more direct links, so you'll need to copy paste the image URLs if you want to see them.)
Here's the source behind the page...
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body { margin: 0; overflow: hidden; }`
#mapfr { height: 80%; margin: 0 auto; width: 90%; display: block; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Iron County Test Map</h1>
<iframe id="mapfr"
src="http://192.168.1.13:8080/geoexplorer/viewer/#maps/1" frameborder="0"></iframe>
<p>This is a test map, version T-001. A disclaimer might go here.</p>
</body>
</html>
I tried putting the "?bbox=" at the end of the "src=.../1".
Thanks for any help. And thanks for the welcome.
