There are many websites which allow you to create your own running route on google maps. Does anyone know how this is done? i cant find any information anywhere, tutorials and open source code.
i am hoping to implement something like this into my website, weather its having to build it or simply embed it similar to embedding a map from google.
here is a simple example of what i am aiming to embeded.
On Form submission, I am trying to pass a variable (var radioValue, which is the RadioButton selection) as Opt Label in the _gaq.push event tracker (google analytics)as follows
onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Visitor', 'Submit', radioValue]);"
However radioValue value is not getting passed Code snippets are attached below. Not sure whether the problem is in the JS function or whether i am calling the var incorrectly in the _gaq.push script. The radioValue is captured in the overall form validation function as below.

I have implemented this AJAX enabled route finder for getting from A to
B on the London Underground network, with built in Google Maps for each
station along the way. The AJAX piece allows for auto completion of
station names and performs the search itself. The underlying framework
is Ruby on Rails and scriptaculous. Code:
I want to do the following to track and view simple stats:
1. Collect stats on page load include a .js snippet in a random page that sends some params to a certain URL (I guess GET is more suitable than POST because of the reload-warning). How would you do that? I think there might be problems with cross domain calls? I don't need to return a result or anything.
2. Get image URL on page load. A simple snippet/call on page load that fetches the stats-image url from an endpoint (same as above) and inserts the image url into an image tag to display the image (google graph api is used). Here I'm also not sure about the call because of cross domain problems. How is this usually done?
Ive got codes that calculate the route & prices between distances upon entering data into two boxes lablled "to" and "from" using google maps. What I need is the route to be shown on the map. Ive tried the googlemap forums but they wont help me (they just direct me to the documentation which I dont really understand).
Anyway after trying to read and understand the code, I managed to get the map to display but when using the form to find postcodes, it stops working.
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.
Can the Google API replace scraping? You can get blocked by Google if you scrape, but can you get the same info from the Google API at no risk?

Could anyone out there decipher and normalize code for a Google search

I also get the feeling sites like Google and Facebook manage to create
better thumbnails on the fly. Any idea how?

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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedBeen 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'm hoping to set up a system similar to Google Adwords that allows
other sites to extact a limited amount of data from my site, and
display it as part of their webpage. Google use a javascript file:
show_ads.js with parameters.
Can anyone explain how the .js file works? In particular how does it
output HTML back to the calling site, and how does it access the
parameters?

I am working on developing my own javascript API to be used across several websites I use on different servers, different domains, and different data centres entirely. I can not copy the script files to all of the websites as they need to remain on the source server for XSS restriction purposes.I am attempting to develop something similar to how the new Google AJAX API works were you can call the load(); function from the google namespace and load any of the required APIs into the google namespace dynamically. I have checked Google and all information I can find is telling me that I need to dynamically create a new script tag using javascript to import the further javascript files from the directory but it isnt working for me.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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):

I am currently building a web app that uses Google Maps V3 api.
You select a check box which then shows a marker on the map.
My issue is, when you select and the marker is placed, I need the map to focus to that point, it currently embeds but doesn't focus.
Is there a particular function I could use to achieve this?
My current code is shown below:
We got a google maps with a bunch of pins. Each pin is setup to use our blue custom icon image. I'm trying to make it so that when you click on a pin, that particular pin changes to a green version of the icon, and all the reset stay blue. If the user clicks another pin, it turns green and the previous goes back to blue.Basicly only the clicked active pin should be green.
google.maps.event.addListener(markers[indx], 'click', function() {
this.setIcon("/images/greenmarker.png");
});
Here is my code so far that will change the clicked pin into a green version.My problem is all attempts to change all pins back to blue prior to changing this clicked pin to green fails bad.
If you look on the top right corner of the site I'm working on, the +1 button doesn't line up with the other social media icons. Why?

I am messing around with Google Maps a little and the fundamental difficulty in building anything useful is extrapolating address information from another website. I would like to be able to use a form like yahoo yellow pages send it a zip code and get back a bunch of, say, banks in that zip code and parse the address out. Some things, very few, actually return data in the XML format, but how do you write a script that send a request to a website and then returns that request as a DOM object. I'll even take HTML and then I'll parse it out myself, but how do you do that.
I know it sounds fundamental, but I'm a real beginner in this, so if you can push me in the right direction I would appreciate it too.
