I've made my 'work in progress' application available for displaying trigpoints on googlemaps

Neat! I notice that anything other than trigs doesn't label with the name - just the ref no and waypoint type (Marilyn, Birkett etc).
But you did say, Work in progress. And I opened it in IE, not Firefox...

The non-geocache side is more work in progress and is limited to the data I've got from the net, the geocache side is pretty good at the moment although you'll need to put the data in to see how good it is :D I didn't have enough space on google to keep the geocache data in and the data isn't fully public domain anyway
could do with some decent icons though to represent the waypoint types like the wainwright ones

I ought to think about moving my own system (MSAccess & GIS) to a memory stick - that's too simple for me to have thought of. A bit old and clunky but it only shows waypoints I haven't done yet.
Bit of a bummer if you lose the memory stick though ....
You could create your own icons?

Always keep a backup so it you lose your stick you've not lost your data.
I have created my own icons, but I attempts on the outstanding ones so far are too naff to use

Wow, 16.2MB is a huge size file for what appears a simple php app.
I've personally been thinking about trying GeoQO (http://www.geoqo.org/), I've not yet used it, but it looks a very flexible waypoint database.

The majority of the file is the uniform webserver application, the php and database for the waypoints only accounts for 1Mb of the file size. I use uniform server so I can view all the caches on a map on my PC at work without having to install any software on my works PC which the audit software will detect and reject. Having it on a flash drive is also useful when a PC with internet access is free.
