JQuery :: GoMap() Plugin For Google Maps - Use Of Several Maps On One Page Is Not Possible
Jan 5, 2011
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'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'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 have a problem with javascript in IE6/IE7, or specifically with jQuery. There is a page that uses the google maps API which shows an error when you navigate to the website and the page remains blank. When I press refresh I get no error and the page loads as it's supposed to (this happens only ie IE6, IE7/8 appear to work fine). The same thing happens with tinymce and the jquery.tinymce.js plugin, which gives an error in IE6/7 but not in IE8. I can't post the URL since it's a password protected "under construction" website. The error for the Google Maps Api I get in IE6 is
Code: Line: 215 Char: 26 Error: 'firstChild' is null or not an object Code: 0 URL: -- left out -- And the error for TinyMCE in IE7 starts with
Code: Line: 53 Char: 3 Error: Permission denied Code: 0 URL: --left out-- And then when I press "yes" for "Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?" I get
The google maps api page uses $(document).ready( fn ), while TinyMCE uses window.onload. And, as one would expect, in FF, Opera and Chrome all works fine.
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'm new to this forum and JS. I simply want to be able to use the Google Maps API v3 to allow a location value entered in my app (by the user) to show that location via Google maps.The code below accomplishes this via an onClick event. How to accomplish the same WITHOUT an onClick? To be clear, it appears I need to be able to perform the geocode lookup to get the long/lat coordinates and then apply them. That all needs to occur on page load.
I am trying to load multiple google maps with advanced directions on one page. I can't seem to get it to work. Any way to run the same multiple times on one page? Here is the code below. The first map and set of directions works, but not the second.

I am a total newbie and am trying to get a google maps type draggable div working for this site www.bingbangbosh.ie. Wondering is it possible to have the div set to a certain width, then when dragged the larger image within the div is dragged around until the cursor meets the edge of the div. would it also be possible to contain this draggable div to a larger div so that it would not be possible for it to disappear off the visible 'window'.[URL]..
I'm in the process of integrating the google maps api into my application. Unfortunately, my events seem to be bubbling. If I open the google maps info window 3 times and click the next button respectively, on the forth time when I click the next button the next event will fire four times. How do I stop this?
I'm using the pretty photo lightbox with the google maps api to load a map into a lightbox window when a link is clicked. There is a basicfunctional example here which is sort of working(click the link x 2 when you get on page): [URL]. I've taken the functionality from a tutorial by the creator of the plugin, and now want to extend it so that i can have multiple links on the same page, that open a different map according to the data attributes for the a tag.
I have this functionality working, to a degree, except that the callback function that initialises the map only fires on the second click of the link, it will not fire on the first clickevent - I've tried debugging in firebug - the click event is registered each time no problem, but the changepicturecallback function provided by prettyPhoto doesnt fire on the first click.
1. In the current script, the markers are set to be random within a radius. What would be an easy way to switch from that to using individual markers that I set from latitudes and longitudes? I'm going to be using around 5 way points surrounding an area and can either hard code or throw in some PHP code.
2. In addition to setting my markers, the navigation is done through generated links like "Point 1", "Point 2", and so forth. How would I insert code to replace .html("Point "+i) with something else? I'm guessing to have a main city, have a few towns around it, and the "Point" links are replaced with text I want to use. Probably hard code or use PHP/MySQL to show a zip code or town related to that marker.Here is a sample of the JavaScript code. I only threw in PHP echo tags for the start lat/long and I have that set:
Code: $(document).ready(function(){ var map = new GMap2($("#map").get(0)); var StartArea = new GLatLng(<?=$latitude?>,<?=$longitude?>);[code].........
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 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 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):
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.
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.
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.
I've seen several websites using a custom image as a map with google maps controls.I'm familiar with how to use the google maps api in general, but I don't know how to use a custom map image that isn't based on the real world, in other words it will be an image of a map from a video game, so general latitude and longitude wont apply.
