[Geoserver-users] georss customization

hi
sorry if this is a duplicate, I couldn't find the info on the site.

I'm serving points to a google map using a
wms/reflect?a=b&layers=layername&format=rss request, and was wondering how
to customize the balloon box displayed on the google map. i've modified the
.ftl files in the data_dir featuretypes directory, but was wondering how to:
- specify a custom icon (yahoo's georss uses an <icon> tag)
- remove the clickable title that links to a wfs getfeature request

I'd be happy to hear any insights on either of these points.

thanks,

tb

Hello,

This is more of a GMap question, but I've used their GeoRSS.

According to the API, the GGeoXML is a type of GOverlay, which is added on
top of the GMap2. GOverlay is implemented by ''GMarker, GPolyline,
GTileLayerOverlay and GInfoWindow classes". The GMarker is what you are
looking for, and you can change the icon in its constructor.

However, there doesn't seem to be a way to access the icon using the code
with GeoRSS. If GeoRSS isn't completely necessary, you could have web inline
markers with arbitrary icons, per code examples on the GMap API website.

Unless you want to hack their code and hardcode an icon, or use third party
code (ACME GeoRSS), I think you're out of luck.
