[support] Google map in cck node

[Pavan Keshavamurthy]

I do this on some old 5.x app: It can't be too different for 6.x

<?php
/*
*  id - the id of the map every map on a page must have a unique id
*  width - width of the map
*  height - height of the map
*  center - a string of the longitude and latitude of the centre of the map
*  zoom - the zoom factor of the google map
*  align - the alignment of the map 'right', 'left' or 'center'
*  control - the control shown on the map 'Large', 'Small', or 'None'
*  type - 'Map', 'Hybrid' or 'Satellite'
*  points/markers - a string of points to mark on the map with + between each 
point
*/
    $points = array(
            'id' => 'map'.$node->nid,
            'width' => '500px',
            'height' => '250px',
            'latitude' => $location['latitude'],
            'longitude'=> $location['longitude'],
            'zoom' => 14,
            'maptype' => 'Map',
            'markers' => array(array(
                    'markername' => 'orange',
              'latitude' => $location['latitude'],
              'longitude' => $location['longitude']
          ))
        );
    print theme('gmap', array('#settings' => $points));
    ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>

You could code this into your node template or perhaps use contemplate.
