Linking to Maps via custom HTML page

Greetings Holiday Revelers: Has anyone tried or attempted the following? BT 1.5 IOS With a custom html page set, have you ever linked to a map created in BT? This is possible and simple with the advanced properties - utilizing the top navigation, adding an info arrow and linking to the page. I wanted to see if anyone has gone a bit further than that. I would like to link many html pages to many separate maps, in the body of the page. Scenario: 1) Custom HTML Page - (hosted outside BT on a different server) 2) <body><a href=whatever_I_should_put_here>Map 1</a> 3) When clicked - it goes to Map 1, which is in the project, but not included in BT Docs or any other part of the xcode that I can find Thanks as always!

I've used the BTv1.5 custom html screen to link to maps I found on difference websites. I've also taken a map (pdf) converted to Html and placed into my source file and used btv1.5 custom html screen to open. Did that answer your question?

Thanks Fred, I appreciate your input, but It sounds like it's a different approach.Perhaps it's unclear on my side. My goal is to have the HTML go to a specific map on BT, as it indicates many different Pin locations throughout. I plan on doing this about 20 times in a single project. BT has made it so versatile, I don't want to link to any other external site, as the BT suits my needs exactly.

Checkout the map in BTv1.4. BTv2.0n has similar. There's this url that was posted previously by ? That's very usefulness. http://maps.google.com/maps? q=restaurant&hl=en&sll=[deviceLatitude],[dev Location)&iwloc=A&hl=en The url maybe incomplete, but you could find it on the forum.
