Maps location set by entity postcode

[steveleake]

hi,

I am new to Spring Roo and have created a web mvc embed map jspx using Roo, and placed the map inside the "show.jspx" page for a Property entity.

I want to use the property's postcode/zip code to set the location for the map, but am unsure how exactly to do this, I have tried numerous approaches including adding location = "${property.getPostcode()}" but nothing has worked, can anyone post any pointers? I will embed my show.jspx page:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<div xmlns:field="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/form/fields" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" xmlns:embed="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/embed" xmlns:page="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/form" version="2.0">

    </page:show>
</div>

any help will be greatly appreciated!

thanks

Note, in the code sample above it has location="London", however I added this as a tester location.
