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 create an application which utilizes the distance finder. I want to be able to calculate the distance between two points. I have managed to (with the aid of a lot of tutorials) be able to calculate the distances between two points.
Now, in the application, there will be times where the user does not supply us with their location to calculate the distance. In this situation, the Latitude and Longitude will be calculated and this location will be shown to the user in the address form instead of with Latitude and Longitude.
What I have on one page is the distance calculator:
And on my other page I've got the latitude and longitude calculator.
I'm also stuck because these two pages will act as functions and will be linked to the main page where the input and output will occur. I'm new to JavaScript, but I am willing to do a lot to get this to work.
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?
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'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'd like to load locations into the map area dynamically, based on the button URL being selected from the left-hand menu of the Locations page.So when the visitor selects Drebkau within the Germany tab, for instance, the map is changed to that new location.Also, on the current website, we have URLs that link to the various locations. Can those coordinates be used for the new map dynamic map coordinates?
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 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 trying to create multiple google maps with multiple directions that load on one page. I have tried duplicating the var and function names but I haven't been able to get it to work.code...
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 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 tried to do a loading bar during the computation of the data of my google map, unfortunately without success for the moment. I use the load function serveral times but never with a google map / javascript, that's probably the problem linked to it. Here is my 2 html pages : 1- dynamicmap.html 2-googlemap.html.
For information, I worked with Django, the googlemap.html works very well when I used this "outside" the dynamicmap.html ... I tried to add the function "initialize()" as argument to load function. I am very lost about how to do. Any remarks is welcom i am still new in webdevelopment, but experimentend in classic programation.
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.
I am trying to display a map with Google maps. The code listed below is located at http:[url]....
Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">[code]....
I find another example where some uses a CDATA tag, but it still doesn't work. http:[url]...I finally remove the DOCTYPE and it works. http:[url]....My problem is I want the DOCTYPE.
I am going to include a google maps to my web with markers, the map works perfect, the problem is that I dont want people to be able to do max zoom for security reason, so I need to put an limit zoom in it, and I cant find out how to on internet, I dont know javascript to do it for myself.
I have a boss who wants to show 5000 points on a Google map. So far, only a fraction of this being displayed freezes the browser. I've been challenged to make this possible while still in the realm of the browser. Would the flash version of Google maps api be a better bet? Does flash provide a better framework for this kind of heavy usage?
I have the following code to insert a google map of the UK into my page with some markers on it. This is fine except I want to change the icon to a simple flat spot. I'm sure this is easy and I have actually managed this before when there was only one marker on the map. how to do it on this example though.
