I could not get that to work, right now it opens in the same window. I did not want the user to navigate away from the site. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/beginner-call-a-google-map-with-user-address#post-34958 Fri, 09 Sep 2011 16:25:02 +0000 Carl Hancock 34958@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You would configure your form to use a redirect for it's confirmation. You'd then place the google map's URL as the redirect URL and then use the query string builder to pass form data to Google Maps using the appropriate query string parameters Google wants (ex. saddr, daddr, etc.). </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/beginner-call-a-google-map-with-user-address#post-34912 Fri, 09 Sep 2011 07:33:13 +0000 mgason 34912@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,<br /> I came across an article that described creating a form in a webpage where the user enters their address and hits submit. This then opens a new browser window at google maps with directions from their address to my location already shown.<br /> How can I set this up using Gravity Forms?</p> <p>the code to do it in a web page is<br /> <pre><code>&lt;form action=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps&quot; method=&quot;get&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; Enter your starting address: &lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;saddr&quot; /&gt; &lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;daddr&quot; value=&quot;12th &amp; C Street SW, Washington DC&quot; /&gt; &lt;input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;get directions&quot; /&gt; &lt;/form&gt;</code></pre>
