Hi Florian, All, On Thursday, Stuart showed us his example map page [1] which is a good starting point (although I still think some banner across the top like the log-in banner we saw on Thursday would be nice).
Today I found a very useful blog that discusses how to create Mapbox/Tilemill functionality with leaflet. Very interesting read - I was particularly interested in how Mapbox do the interactive/pop-up bits without constantly querying a database [3]. The resulting map [4] provides very swift and low overhead display of legend and pop-up data (much better than when I was experimenting with pulling vector data from a MySQL database in my attempted allotments map last year). I will see if I can find the time to play with this before next months meeting.
