Link to Google Maps

Question

I'm developing a website in HTML and I would like to surround a postcode with a link so that when a user clicks on the postcode he is sent to google maps searching that postcode. Any advice how can I do that? Thanks!

go to the map you want, copy the url. use the url as the link... — Novocaine, Jun 21 '13 at 15:09

See the Map Images API on Google. It's actually pretty straight forward.

Static Maps API

Add static maps, including terrain or satellite maps, to your web page or application. The Static Maps API supports custom styling, high resolution printing and displays, markers, and geometry.

Read the developer documentation.

Dev Documentation is here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/staticmaps/index

I think OP just wants to link to the Google Maps site. – bdesham Jun 21 '13 at 15:16
Yes I want to redirect to google maps using the postcode, not a map in the website – james156 Jun 21 '13 at 15:26

Just put this type of link with q=postcode :

<a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=YourPostCode" target="_blank">Go on maps </a>

example

<a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=83210" target="_blank">Go on maps </a>

Enjoy
