I have a field with an ADDRESS. I would like that to appear as if it was an icon or shorter text and then when someone clicks on it to open the address up in a google map, with the full text of the field content.
Any suggestions are welcome.. Thanks.

Re: LINK HELP
I think you will need to add another field to your table to contain the clickable URL for the map. Then you will need to build a URL each time the address is updated using the appropriate hooks. You can research google maps links and see how they take components of addresses. Doesn't look so hard. In my simple test I found that just passing the postal code gets me close enough but your need might be to go more specific. The more of the address you pass in the more specific location you get. Try simple with postal code and then refine. Here's the URL you need to build for simple postal code based link :
https://www.google.com/search?q=google+ ... OSTAL_CODE
Hope this helps.
PS. It is suggested that you only post a specific question once and not in many threads. Thanks
