UK Electoral Role Check and Google Maps Link
 

Hi,

Have found this mod to be very useful and thought I would share, it has loads of possibilities so please add to this code. Designed for 4.0.18, haven't looked at it for 4.1.x branch.

With a click of a button it can do the following:

Electroral role check
Check post code in google maps (you can then view maps etc)
Calculate shipping and billing address route

Very easy to install:

Edit skin1/main/order_info.tpl

Add the following at the end:

{if $usertype eq 'A'}
{literal}
<form class="homesearch" id="search" name="search" action="http://www.192.com/search/search.cfm" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" target="_blank">
<input type="hidden" name="section" value="all" />
<input type="hidden" name="view" value="S" />
<input type="text" name="who" id="who" autocomplete="off" value="{/literal}{$customer.b_lastname}{literal}" />
<input type="text" name="location" id="location" autocomplete="off" value="{/literal}{$customer.b_zipcode}{literal}" />
<input type="submit" name="btnSearch" id="btnSearch" onClick="if(isSubmittable('who') == true){document.forms[0].submit();} else {return false;}" value="Billing 192" class="submit" />
&nbsp; <a href="http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q={/literal}{$customer.b_zipcode}{literal}&btnG=Google +Search&meta=cr%3DcountryUK%7CcountryGB" target="_blank">Google Search</a>

&nbsp; <a href="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q={/literal}{$customer.b_zipcode}{literal}" target="_blank">Google Map</a>
</form>

<input type="hidden" name="view" value="S" />
<input type="text" name="who" id="who" autocomplete="off" value="{/literal}{$customer.s_lastname}{literal}" />
<input type="text" name="location" id="location" autocomplete="off" value="{/literal}{$customer.s_zipcode}{literal}" />
<input type="submit" name="btnSearch" id="btnSearch" onClick="if(isSubmittable('who') == true){document.forms[0].submit();} else {return false;}" value="Shipping 192" class="submit" />
