I'm trying to update the location of a marker in a Google Maps API. The only problem is that the marker won't update (only if i update the whole initialize() function with a setTimeout function).
It goes about the following code:
Code:
What i want is that the marker updates automatically (with AJAX) and not the whole map. First of al i thought i push the code that set's te marker in a function, and reload that every 4 seconds. But that doesn't work.
how can I get my custom markers to show? I have got my code in place, everything works except, doesn't show my custom marker?!
here is my code: <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) { // A function to create the marker and set up the event window // Dont try to unroll this function. It has to be here for the
Right I have google maps connected to a database which holds stockists and their information. The user enters their postcode and radius and markers are put on the map of stockists in the radius of their postcode. I have this all working fine and the database chucks the information into an xml file fine. The problem im having is displaying the information in the pop up window of the marker.
Example Xml:
The only information displayed in the sidebar entry is the name and distance and on the marker just the name.
I have the code below but for some reason it only works when adding the marker to the map (map click). When I drag the marker around, the coordinates and closest address don't update.
This code works if I add the marker straight in the initialize() function but not when I add it within the addListenerOnce for map click event. I want to be able to add 1 marker to the map, and update its address and coordinates when dragging the marker around.
Of course, I make code for marker add and move, but how do I can make deletion option for marker? And how do I can make automatic route creator from marked point A to marked point B?
I have several google map markers and lightbox image gallery in the html file. I need to associate each image from the gallery with the markers.
I've tried this
Code: google.maps.event.addListener(marker01, 'click', function() { document.getElementById("bump"); }); "bump" is id of div with the image, but it didn't work.
I'm using the goMap Google Maps plugin very successfully (and I highly recommend it) - except that I can't seem to set shadows on my map markers. There appears to be support for this in the plugin source code - but there's no documentation I can find.
Anyone got an clues on how to do this? This is a simplified version of the code I'm trying to use. I have checked the obvious/stupid things - file path is correct (the image isn't 404ing in firebug), and there's no js errors being thrown, or any other warnings reported.
I want to know if this can be done using jQuery and Google Maps. In my website I have a Google map where users could add new markers with a description on it and the marker they put would be permanent on my map, meaning if they comeback they would still see the markers they added.
I also want the feature that they could just drag and drop the marker, so it would be easy to the users. What would be my approach and how would I do it?
I am designing a site where users can submit a location. I want to use Google Maps with a draggable marker which posts the lat, lon when dropped on a position. I was wondering if anyone knows of a tutorial or could point me in the direction of anything similar.
Hopefully a really quick question. I'm a JS novice, and am looking for a way to output the coordinates of a Google maps marker into the value of two text fields, one for latitude and one for longitude.The code below is a simple location search which returns a result with a draggable marker. Currently, the coordinates in both text fields update when the location search is performed, but not when the marker is dragged to a new location afterwards.
I want to have several maps on my aspx/ascx-Webpage, but only the last one is rendered after PageLoad(). Is there any limitation for that in the goMap() plugin?
I want to add a google map(with street view) in my site. I use this code. when I clicked the point on the map, it can change the street view to this part and show the click point information. But how to add a Red balloons marker in the click point? Then I click in the other point, the first Red balloons marker will move to the new point.( just click for move the marker, not drag the marker)

I'm developing a land use map and want to use Google Maps. Just want to ask if the Javascript API could actually handle overlays like this sample: URl...Or you would suggest other ways to do this?
I'm not sure where I have translated this incorrectly. I have one google map embedded on my page which works fine. But I wanted to add a second one. I thought the easiest way to do this would be to have a second page which is called later on with all the details on it for the second map. However although I think (this I presume is where I went wrong) I have replicated the instructions correctly the place holder for the second map just remains blank.
This is the code for my called page with the instructions for the second map:
And this is the script of the main page, just in case I would be better off keeping them both in one place.

I've cut out the script that doesn't relate to this so I hope I haven't missed anything important.
I am trying to add markers to Google Maps, they are working fine but some of the markers are of same location, thus Google Map will show only one marker for them. Is it possible to show all markers no matter if they are of same location.
I'm trying to call a javascript from a marker in my embedded google map on my website. But it's not working out the way I want. I'm making a link in "my maps" but he deletes all the javascript I'm trying to implement.
I'm working on a project which implements google Maps. Now I have to choose between GWT or JavaScript as a programming platform. I'm wondering which is faster when accessing the data to be used to initialise the maps from a remote server?
Been looking at google maps, but i am not sure if this is possible, what do you think?
1) Fill database with places (refering to lat + long values) + put markers on google map. 2) Users can then browse the map, click on a marker to select the location which referes to a place in a database.
I know I can add markers to a map. Not sure if it is possible for a user to click one, which then fills a box in a form though.
I am working on creating a map using the google maps API. I would like to update the markers and info windows using an XML database. I know how to parse the XML using PHP if I was just going to create a table on the page, but for the life of me I can't find a complete and simple description of how to do it with javascript. I've been reading tutorials and W3 schools reference for over a week trying to figure it out. I'm new to javascipt, so some of the stuff I don't really understand. I did find a similar question posted on this forum, although I can't get it working. Here is my code (note: this code doesn't work, I know that I'm missing some way to load the xml and parse it, but I don't see how its done):
