HTML instead of a header image in a menu list (BT 1.5 iOS)

Basically what I'm trying to do is have a menu with various items like Phone Number, Address, Hours of Operation, etc. for business listings, and in place of a header image I would like to embed a small HTML google map (similar to what you would see in the aroundme app if you are familiar) Looked through the forums but didn't really find anything. Does anyone know if this is even a possibility?

Hi johnny, Not without manually editing some of the code if you're comfortable with objective-c. I would guess it's most likely doable, although check out this article to see if Apple/Google will be 'ok' with it: http://www.iphonedevsdk.com/forum/iphone-sdk-development/3581-display-mini-view-google-maps-app.html

Tip: Have a look at the BT_screen_menuList.m file. You'll see a UIImageVIew is created if a header image is used. You could use this same container size to add a different view, not a UIImageView but a UIMap or UIWebView to show some HTML. Some hacking would be required but I'm sure you could figure it out ;-)
