OpenLayers

Native support for OpenLayers (which is related to OpenStreetMap) is new to Tiki7. Below are instructions about OpenLayers with previous versions.

Embedding OpenLayers in a Wiki Page

By using the HTML and JavaScript plugins OpenLayers can be used with Tiki. Although it is not yet integrated into the system as Google Maps is, markers on an OpenLayers map can be linked to tracker items and wiki pages.

OpenLayers style sheets are included with a import statement. This works on Firefox and IE. The OpenLayers JavaScript API is bought in via js file import by the JS plugin, as is the actual JavaScript that defines the map.
