What is the RedMol map?

If you have a real estate website and want to show information about homes without having to learn

Zillow API
map api (we use the Google Map API)
ajax, json, XML, etc.

RedMol map is for you. Currently, the RedMol Map is sized at 600w x 300h pixels, or 300w x 600h if you prefer a vertical map. There isn't much you can customize. If you have a dying need for this, please contact us and let us know.

Why did you make this and make it freely available?

If I find it useful, I'm sure others will too. I believe in karma. What goes around comes around

What new features will you add?

As requested by developers who cater to real estate buyers/investor

How do I add your map to my site?

Stick this JavaScript into your web page. These are the parameters (bold are required)

"redmol_address" - This is the address of the property you wish to search
"redmol_citystatezip" - City,State OR zipcode of the property
"redmol_map_vertical" - Set this to true if you want a vertical map. If you do not specify this, it will be set to "false" by default.

That's it! Here's a sample code of how it should look

	<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
  var redmol_address = "2714 Cardinal Lane";
  var redmol_citystatezip = "95125";
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" 
	src="http://www.redmol.com/embed/map/"></script>
</body>
</html>

This produces a map that looks like this:

If you want a VERTICAL map, just specify "var redmol_map_vertical = true" in your javascript like so:

<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
  var redmol_address = "2714 Cardinal Lane";
  var redmol_citystatezip = "95125";
  var redmol_map_vertical = true;
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" 
	src="http://www.redmol.com/embed/map/"></script>
</body>
</html>

This produces a map that looks like this:
