Dallas Halloween

I’m changing the system to depend on a central library to make maintenance, changes, and upgrades more maintainable for haunted house nation. Right now it’s not many changes, just trying to replace the functionality it has with a central library. This will also allow me to replicate the site as I’ve mentioned I want to do.

Here’s my current feature list for this main library:

1. Custom RSS Feed of Opening Houses(Houses within 100mi of 75226 for example, or 200mi, etc..) so it can be replicated on blogs, etc…
2. Rankings, Vote for a house, 1 to 10. Averaging, etc.. will all be kept and recorded.
3. Ajax Support(will take longer, and come later). You don’t have to reload the site to do another search. This means it will work much more like Google Maps
4. Better centering support. Center the map to all the markers by creating some lat/long coordinates. Right now state view centers on a random house.
5. Search by Open Houses
6. Events Support - Things that are only happening once or for a given period. Such as concerts, etc.. stuff like that.

For this site itself(All that above will be able to be replicated so to speak):

The only thing I really care about at this time is direct linking to a house and after that the ability to hit driving directions from the state view of the map.
