Driving directions are very important for people that have actual places of business. I was wondering if anyone has created a module or block so visitors can use MapQuest to find the store?

For some reason I am not getting notified of replies. Sorry for the late response.

I checked out the module. Very nice.

The module appears to violate MapQuest terms of service. They want their map to open in a new Window, probably so they can advertise and get full credit for their maps.

I was able to use the core menu for that.

Title = MapQuest
URL Format for Pop up Window = http:\\www.yoursite.com"target="_blank"

Specific MapQuest Driving Directions URL = http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?ci ... =us&zoom=5"target="_blank"

But I can't use MapQuest now, because my site is a historic Inn, and I don't want MapQuest to steal my visitors. MapQuest really pushes "Cheap hotel reservation" ad banners all over their site.
