Hi all.

So this is part two of my questions, having created something using
Mikes excellent gmaps tutorials and other bits of information on the
internet. If you missed the first thread/set of questions, I'm quite
new to coding and so it's been a struggle, but I like to think that I
am "getting there"!.

So, the problem...I've created a mapping application where people can
click in a google map and assign a value and score to markers, this is
stored in a mysql database. The code can be (and will be) set so that
the users can only see the points they have entered.

The problem is that there is no way to edit or delete the markers once
they have been submitted, and this could be quite important as
inevitably people will make mistakes.

A link to the current incarnation of the map is here:

I'd like to check and maybe discuss the best way to accomplish what I
need before proceeding, as I am guessing quite a bit will need
modifying potentially, and being such a newbie, this will take me some
time!

My thoughts on the issue are that I need to add an autonumber to the
marker table in the database, and somehow code the infowindow that
pops up when a marker is clicked to display a "delete marker" link,
which when clicked will reference the markers autonumber/ID and run
the sql delete code. Does this sound about right, or does someone have
a better suggestion?

Thanks all for your help, this group is an excellent resource!
