I have been searching for a way to used Prepopulate to prepopulate fields that where generated by the Location module. as much as I could figure out the url show be either :
http://www.example.com/node/add/nodetype?edit[locations][0][%23location_...
or
http://www.example.com/node/add/nodetype?edit[locations][0][%23location_...
Neither of these work. %23 is the way to escape the '#' character.

I got this information from Var_Dumping the '$form' variable in the '_prepopulate_get_walk' Function.

From what I got, I feel I am very close or maybe the Locations.module isn't made to accept the data.

I am wondering if anyone else tried to use these 2 modules, and if you were able to get the 2 modules working together.

I am using the 6.x version, and also struggles with finding the correct url for using location items.

I need the location latitude and longitude prepopulated, to allow people to post on the same geographic location as "parent" nodes without setting lat and long themselves.

Seems like the location form is not a part of $form.

Does this mean that prepopulate won't work at all on locaion form elements?
