relationship btw google maps and the gallery

[kaycee]

Hi kkokus, thanks for your swift replies.
I must admit that your gallery code is one of the most sophisticated codes i have ever come across though i have been able to break through it. i am currently working on a social network site and coding a nice gallery that would be irresistible to the members has been the bone in my throat for a while till i saw your gallery. i am quite good in php programming but not up to your level. i have successfully reconfigured the comment system to fetch the comments from my database together with the profile picture and name of the person commenting thereby making the name textfield irrelevant because only registered members can view the gallery. Also only the owner of the picture (who must be logged in) can delete a comment. My current struggle is how to delete and move pictures from one gallery to the other by the owner with just a button click.

While studying the code in the ki_js_view.php, i came across this; "window.open("http://maps.google.com/?q=" + filename + "@" + coordinates);" which is located in the opengps() function.

i don't understand the relationship between google maps and the gallery pictures, is there a tracking device in each picture? lol!
secondly, what is the function of the keyCode?
cheers

Some cameras can add geodetic coordinates to the metadata of taken pictures. The script can check on that and display a small link in the top left corner which shows the location, where the picture was taken on google maps. This is controlled by the $checkgps - parameter. The admin can turn this feature on or off in the settings.

The keyCode is a code which comes with every keyboard-event in JavaScript. This way you can bind actions to specific keys being pressed. Like navigation through the images with the cursor keys ...
