Google Map API - Adding Trails = Need Every Coordinate?
Oct 20, 2010
I am well versed in design and PHP programming but when it comes to javascript (and Google's API for their maps) I'm pretty rusty. I don't need someone to provide me with exact answers on this, but just any advice on the best way to achieve ... or if you want to give me the exact code, that's cool too.I am potentially working on a project that would involve using Google Maps as a base and overlaying all of the various trails that can be found in the Minnesota area (snowmobile trails in winter, hiking in summer, etc).
I have been reading up on the API for Google Maps and from what I've read so far, it appears that to create the lines, you need to input coordinates for any accuracy? Is this correct? I see that I could simply overlay a graphic of the trail map on top of the Google map, but we are looking for something more elegant that actually shows the lines on the map versus an image.Would we need to have coordinates for every bend / turn of the trail?

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.
<head>
I've cut out the script that doesn't relate to this so I hope I haven't missed anything important.

The rssdisplayer.js code works well enough, however, clicking on the generated rss news link updates the current html page with the feed. Not a good idea since I don't want people leaving my website.
So, the script that builds the href link looks like this:
I want to add target="_blank" for obvious reasons.

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.

Notice: This is a discussion thread for comments about the SitePoint article, Adding Markers to a Map Using the Google Maps API and jQuery.
I just got a little lost as to where the #showmarkers button comes from?

Enter a search term and:1) Google Blog Results show up2) Twitter Search Results show up3) Google Maps with custom xml data shows upI have accomplished the first 2 parts - http://www.justincener.com/xmlI now want to add in Google Maps. The idea is to type in a athlete's name and have results come back from Google Blog Search (done), Twitter (done), and Google Maps. I only need to show 2-3 choices, so I want to create a custom Google Maps XML doc that corresponds to a few search terms. For example, when someone types in "Tom Brady", I want a Google Map to also come up along with the Google Blog and Twitter Results.
On the map, I want to plot 4 points showing his 4 next games. I think I know how to create the custom XML for GMaps, but I don't know how to implement it so that when someone enters input, the GMaps will show up. Can anyone get me started in the right direction please?Here is the JS so far that handles Google Blog Results and Twitter Results:
var errorCount=0;
var twitter_link;
function searchGoogle(query)
[code]....

Is there a way to use JavaScript to push a page element (a DIV block,
for example) down the screen, so it sits at the bottom of the browser
window. Code:
Note how the footer is very high up. Is there a way to push the DIV
that the footer is in to the bottom of the browser window?
In pseudocode:
if (where element Y coordinate is above <browser window bottom Y
coordinate>) {
move footer to browser window bottom Y coordinate
}
else {
leave footer where it is , as that means that the content of the page
already pushed it down
}

I would like to force the initial location of a window to the (0,0) coordinate and give it a specific width and height when it loads.
I use the following:
Code:
function initPage() {
window.moveTo(0, 0);
window.resizeTo(400, 400);
}
I call this function at the onload event of the page body.
I get an error saying: "Access is denied"
what is the problem with the code? what could be causing this?

I'm trying to move pictures around on the screen, with a slight delay
between the first picture and second picture (following onmousemove).
When I add the setTimeout function I must be doing it wrong because
the function that calculates the new coordinates for the picture
returns 32 million and change instead of the coordinate. This causes
the picture to not be able to appear on the display, obviously.
Here's the calling code (snipped for readability) that works without
setTimeout:

I have a problem with moving group element. I want to move it according to initial coordinate system of parent svg container. But transform:translate(10,20) for example, establishes a new user coordinate system which origin (0,0) is absolute X=10, absolute Y=20. How can I animate(move) group with absolute coordinates without writing additional functions to calculate this coordinates?

I'm currently doing on a project, frankly speaking i'm new in javascript only know the basics. I'm not even sure whether this thread is suppose to be here or under html.. I'm suppose to create some codes that enable a html page to load to the next html page when the mouse move from left to right within a specific time and distance(positive X coordinate) and also the other way round (right to left) once i figured out this. I've got an example online and edited it. Please take a look at my codes.
[Code]...
test01.html is just blank page created to make sure it loads. However i would like to load from test01 to another html page but no matter how i tried to edit the codes, there's errors. I cant possibly copying and pasting the exact codes to every page i want to load to right? And is it possible to sortof increase mouse sentivity such that i can most probably load to the next page in first few tries of moving the mouse on the first page. Is it common that when i launch the html on IE and Firefox somehow after showing the first page for maybe 1 second, it immediately jumped to 2nd page and i have to go back to 1st page to try out.

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?

If obfuscation isn't all that good, why does Google obfuscate its
search results' code? Okay, I realize they're a commercial entity and
need to do it. How do they do it?
Could anyone out there decipher and normalize code for a Google search
result page? And despite the obfuscation, why is Google so fast?
I also get the feeling sites like Google and Facebook manage to create
better thumbnails on the fly. Any idea how?

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'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?
