This code was developed actively between 2006 and 2010. google maps api gets revised every few months and made backward incompatible this created problems for travelsmar,t which can be fixed by github copilot or similar ai, The code uses html4 which should not create problems. As my friend Pio who helped me develop this said in 2006. I think we've out googled google. This is my answer to Uber which google valued at $17 billion in 2013. It's a simple google maps open source carpool website the code is old and 2006-2009 era mysql & php and a bit obselete I need a maintainers for this & itit's only 10k lines of code. I recently modified this to work in a 2014 implementation of php, This mostly involved kludgy getting rid of division by zero errors. It needs to be made work on what was phonegap/newer javascript and google maps api's to show how far away the car thats to pick the passenger up is in realtime. bootstrap 4 support to be added for mobiles and javascript popups to explain the intimidating plan_trip page & make the plan trip page into a wizard to make it less intimidating.
Read /htdocs/templates/give_it_away_now.tpl will explain how to insall additional dependancies to get it to work like pear libraries & sajax.
Also join the http://ariasoft.ie/mailman/listinfo/carpool_protocol_ariasoft.ie mailing list if you are a carpool website developerm it is early days yet but I'm interested in getting all the carpool websites talking to each other, so, that a passenger on carpool website A can match with a driver on carpool website B. If I can get enough interest we will be writing an internet standard for carpool_protocol as an RFC & I'm looking for collaborators if any of ye are interested in making sure carpooling works as each new website is dividing up the carpooler customer base even further without a carpool protocol, saving the environment and even internet rfc immortality.
