Can someone please supply a simple procedure for getting this to work? I am trying to use this with the event module. I have installed the location.module. Thanks.

Hey

I have a similar problem to Steve Dondley

Is there some reasonably priced service offered by drupal org to install the software into a specified URL?

If you know... please tell me

I updated the README.txt file with detailed instructions. Please download the latest version. Let me know if that worked.

It might be nice if you mentioned on the main page for the project that this requires a geolocation service...

The UK does not currently have such a service, and as such this module is unfortunately currently useless...

Sorry, I did not realized that support is so limited.

The actual links are generated by the location_map_link function. The documentation for this functions says:
Get deep-links to a mapping services such as Yahoo! Maps or MapQuest (actual providers depend on configuration of location module) given a location. The call is delegated based on the 'country' value in the $location parameter.

Look at the location.us.inc file (or location.ca.inc) and at the location_map_link_* functions. I think that it would be quite easy to implement map links for UK.

So, I don't think that geolocation support is needed, just map link support. And it is quite easy to add.
