Default Runway Finder Coding

HTML savy RVers or DualRudder,

Is there a way to code the URL at Runwayfinder.com so that you can link to a certain view. i.e. I want to send an email with Gaston's pulled up on the map, but the URL is always http://www.runwayfinder.com/ even after searching.

Thanks!

I just took a look at the javascript that he uses to make this clever page. The following should work:

http://www.runwayfinder.com?loc=KCEC

Plug your alternate site in instead of KCEC

I should write a Help page. The info is buried in the About page right now. There's also a "Bookmark this location" link near the bottom that you can use (right-click, copy link) to get back to any map location/zoom or airport id.

I've been working on some cool new features that I'll hopefully get finished up in the next month or so.
