oh and just to be safe Rogi, you may want to add ,10 for the parseInt functions' radix parameter, as the default is to interpret "0x#" as hex and "0#" as octal (rather than forcing numbers entered to be interpreted as decimal; eg right now it would interpret 0100 as 49 instead of 100 if I put the 0 in by mistake. Been bitten by that little default before)

thebruce,
As you may have guessed, from looking at the code, I'm not a programmer.
I can kludge stuff together, sometimes, but it's looking like this isn't one of them.
I can't get the onChange to fire on the dropdown.
Could you make whatever you feel are appropriate changes?

ETA2: Think I got it to work (But I lost the "Scorpio" default).

So does that mean Adriane managed to recover whatever was mentioned in the clue before? Someone posted an email that said she was going there...

...has she replied to that person's email?

Here's a potentially useful observation based on Ariock's most recent find: The places of origin/omphaloi could be in fairly obscure places. This makes sense if you start with the idea that the destinations are in less obscure places (like Cardiff, Shanghai, and Austin). If you want to be able to go from the same omphalos to both Cardiff and Austin, and have them be equidistant from that omphalos, your options for what that midpoint could be are quite limited if it must be named place ... thus the choice of Stephenville, NL.

This might explain why we are having some difficulty finding the name of the point of origin in the Germany/Denmark/Sweden vicinity, as sapagoo describes in his post. If (like Stephenville) it was likely selected purely because it is equidistant from two locations of interest, it might be a small place indeed.
