Description
Hi,
I want to use the CCK Location Field in order to set map.setCenter of Google Maps I'm displaying via Contemplates in nodes. All I can find in Contemplates is
<?php
print $node->field_location[0]['view']
?>Germany
51° 24' 46.4832" N, 10° 10' 24.024" E
See map: Google MapsIs it possible to get the values of latitude and longitude separately, like 51.412912 and 10.17334?

Hi,
I found the answer :
$lat = $field_location[0]['latitude'];
$long = $field_location[0]['longitude'];
"location" is the name of my field.
Hope it will help!

It helped,
I now use 'computed field' to fill the lat and lon values to a different cck field.
Thanks.
