I am using the Google Map API V3 and fusiontables to create an interactive map. Everything is working well as I want it to, except for a certain feature I would like to add. The map shows a list of businesses that may have internship opportunities for a local school. I would like the information boxes that pop up to have a link at the bottom that says "Pursue." When the link is clicked it will take the fusiontable data for the specific infobox opened and autofill a google form. Is this possible? Will I need to use something other than Google Forms?

Here is my map:


All help appreciated.

You can use the google visualization API to query the Fusion Table for
data and then use the results to populate an HTML form.

Don't know how to use "Google Forms", but if it creates an html form
that you can access, you can make it work.

Any idea or pointers on how to do this? Maybe an example from another website? I have read through the GVis API and I do not know how to fill an html form. Thanks

Search the web.

I don't have any examples or know where any are (and you can search
the group/web as well as I can). I'm sure it can be done. Pretty
sure it doesn't have anything to do with the Google Maps JavaScript
API v3 (the topic of this group).
