+PopUpPirate Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I've created a Firefox search plugin: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html?author=PopUpPirate Just enter the co-ords in pretty much any format you like (just don't include the degree symbol) and you get an OS 1:50/1:25 map, on the fly. Try it with.... N 53 37.455 W 002 38.474 for instance Quote Link to comment
+Graculus Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 OK....N 51° 35.624 W 002° 44.806 (from our cache Alianore and the Swan) takes me to Tulsa?? Am I missing something Chris Quote Link to comment
+mickyz Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) I hope you didn't put the degrees symbol in [] Caldicot ? [] Edited April 22, 2011 by mickyz Quote Link to comment
+Matthew 7:7 Too Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 It's working for me! Thanks a lot, sure this will be very useful. Chris Quote Link to comment

+JimJinks Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Had this facility for ages with the Mapit! bookmarklet which works with all browsers. Quote Link to comment
+Graculus Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I hope you didn't put the degrees symbol in [] Caldicot ? [] Yes, copied the coords exactly from the cache page. So you have to edit out the symbol?? With the MapIt link you just highlight coords (any format) and click the bookmark button. Works fine! You can do the same with the MagicMapIt link to open the magic map from any coordinates.
