<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hi,<br><br></div>I think that's slightly different to what I had in mind. My suggestion was to make a very simple way to make a map marker. For example, if a friend asks me where a restaurant is, or a park, I want to go to the map and quickly create a link with a marker to send to my friend. I can paste the link into email, or Facebook, or any chat program.<br>
<br></div>I can do this right now, but I need to edit the long permalink (or add "?m" to the short permalink). I'd like to skip this step.<br><br></div>Thanks,<br><br>Andrew<br><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra">

<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Hello,<br><br></div>On the main map at <a href="http://osm.org" target="_blank">osm.org</a> there is a 'permalink' hyperlink, which generates a URL encoding the current view of the map. It is easy to change this into a marker link by editing the URL and changing "lat" and "lon" to "mlat" and "mlon".<br>
<br></div>Would it be beneficial to add another hyperlink which will do this automagically? Maybe called "markerlink", which produces a URL containing "mlat" and "mlon".<br><br></div>I know it means work for someone, but if it's a good idea then hopefully it can be implemented easily. I don't know if it's been suggested before, but if such a feature were available I would use it a lot. I often make my own OSM marker links to send to people by editing the permalink URL, so I'd appreciate a one-click function to do this.<br>
<br></div><div>Comments please. If it's a good idea I will submit it to OSM trac.<br><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div></div></div><div>I like it, but should be considered also into the url shortening part (now if you add marker via mlon and mlat and make a shorturl it transforms it in lon and lat..)</div>
