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?!

I am able to move my logo on my map, is there any way of locking it's position?
I'm trying to remove a marker that was initialized like this:
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latLng,
map: map,
draggable: true,
animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP,

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'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.
I am generating a google map and plotting markers based on the IP addresses of cities stored in my database.
For each marker i display on the map I want the user to be able to see the city name and also a number that is generated from my DB.
So Id have a custom blank marker and put the city name and a number onto the marker. Is this possible?
Very similar to this: [url]
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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.

Everything works perfectly, except the form fields don't update once the marker is moved. I expect this is a really elementary javascript mistake!?
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'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.

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function load() {[code]......
MY GOAL - I have a database with a bunch of items and each has latitude, longitude and a category (all the items are within 1 city). I want to have a page that will show a google map, display a marker based on the lat/lng and the image of the marker should be customized based on the category of the row. For example, some rows have a 'food' category and some have a 'health' category - I have specific images I want displayed for each image. I need a script that will plot a marker for each item in my db. I have never used Google maps API before and I'm thinking V3 is what I need to use.
$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table");
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($query)){
$lat=$row['lat'];
$lng=$row['lng'];
$category=$row['category'];
//SET MARKER PICTURE TO $category
//ADD MARKER TO MAP
}
I don't know javascript that well and I have tried about 40 different things and get nothing but a blank page!
I have an array of latitude/longitude data. I need to make a marker appear on the map for each lat/lng pair. But it won't. If I ask the function to print out the coordinates instead of marking them on the, map, it works fine. I don't get an error message either way, so I'm stuck. The page displays the map but without any markers. Here's the code of the function that should add markers:
//adds markers to the map
function addMarkers(locarray) {
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var marker, i;
for (i = 0; i < locarray.length; i++) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locarray[i][0], locarray[i][1]),
map: map
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i) {
return function() {
infowindow.setContent('some words');
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}})(marker, i));
}}
Here's the initialize function (called on body load):
function initialize() {
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var latlng = codeAddress("<?php echo $_POST['postal']; ?>");
var myOptions = {
zoom: 11,
center: latlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
} map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
}
Geocoder and map are declared as global variables. The codeAddress function returns lat and lng of the place I want to center the map around, it's been tested and works perfectly. And here is the script that declares the array and calls the addMarkers function:
<script type='text/javascript'>
var locations = [
[-33.890542, 151.274856],
[-33.923036, 151.259052],
[-34.028249, 151.157507],
];
addMarkers(locations)

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)

[URL] If you go to this site in Chrome (or Safari) I get a Uncaught Error: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: DOM Exception 1 javascript error and my markers do not show up. In all other non-webket browsers I do not see this problem.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a few questions:
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 need a hand with my google maps code Basically what I want to do is display multiple addresses on a single map. I've got that part to work but I need to set-up the bounds and zoom so it zooms out/in and shows all the addresses in the map window...
My problem is after I run the setMapMarker() function in the load() function, I need to pull out the latitude and longitude from the geocoder that is run in the setMapMarker() function... however I can't seem to get it to return those details because the coordinates are pulled in the geocoder function.

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
Code:
Line: 19
Char: 7
Error: 'tinymce' is undefined
Code: 0
URL: --left out--
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 want to create a interactive map viewer likeGooglemaps using my own custom map image. On clicking a location on the map, a small popup displayed showing some data. I aslo want a zooming and panning functionality. note that i am using aLinuxserver. The application must not use flash.

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:
