JavaScript - Dragging Page Inside Box (google Maps?)
Hi everyone,
I'm putting together a family tree type organization chart and looking to be able to drag it around to view different parts similar to google maps. I believe javascript is the way to handle this but need some help pointing me in the right direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike Similar TutorialsHi, 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: PHP Code: <?php echo $_POST['Map'] . '<br />'; ?> <div id="placemap_canvas"></div> <meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" /> <style type="text/css"> html {height:250px} body {height:250px} #placemap_canvas {width:100%; height:150px;} </style> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=true" /> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng ( <?php include("dbconnect.php"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM regions WHERE RegionPId='{$_POST['Map']}'"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo $row['maplink']; } mysql_close($con); ?> ); var myOptions = { zoom: 4, center: latlng, mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP }; var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("placemap_canvas"), myOptions); } </script> And this is the script of the main page, just in case I would be better off keeping them both in one place. Code: <head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadSubPlace(File,ID,Msg,Eile,EID,Esg){
loadXMLDoc1(File,ID,Msg);
var mimer = setTimeout(function(){loadXMLDoc1(Eile,EID,Esg)},5000);

I've cut out the script that doesn't relate to this so I hope I haven't missed anything important. Hi: 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. Any tips on how to re-arrange this code to accomplish the desire goal are appreciated. Thanks much. Bill Code: <html>

Hi all , I need some help in altering the location tag and the View Larger Map links to open in a new window, currently it opens in the same window.

Hi, Apologies in advance but I have no experience of Javascript. I found the following 'Cut & Paste Google Internal Site Search script' in the Javascriptkit.com library - it works well and provides an easy solution for adding a search function to a website - code below Code: <script type="text/javascript">
// Google Internal Site Search script- By JavaScriptKit.com (http://www.javascriptkit.com)
// For this and over 400+ free scripts, visit JavaScript Kit- http://www.javascriptkit.com/
// This notice must stay intact for use
//Enter domain of site to search.
var domainroot="www.javascriptkit.com"
function Gsitesearch(curobj){
curobj.q.value="site:"+domainroot+" "+curobj.qfront.value
}
</script>
<form action="http://www.google.com/search" method="get" onSubmit="Gsitesearch(this)">
<p>Search JavaScript Kit:<br />
<input name="q" type="hidden" />
<input name="qfront" type="text" style="width: 180px" />*<input type="submit" value="Search" /></p>
</form>
<p style="font: normal 11px Arial">This free script provided by<br />
<a href="http://www.javascriptkit.com">JavaScript Kit</a></p>
However, if possible, I would like to display the results inside the website structure rather than on a new page - is there an easy way to do this? Thanks in advance for any help. Hi I have just started looking at the Google maps, and have atutorial that will get the co-ordinates. What I want this to do, is then populate two fields on a form one called longitude and one called latitude Code: function usePointFromPostcode(postcode, callbackFunction) {
localSearch.setSearchCompleteCallback(null,
function() {
if (localSearch.results[0]) {
var resultLat = localSearch.results[0].lat;
var resultLng = localSearch.results[0].lng;
var point = new GLatLng(resultLat,resultLng);
callbackFunction(point);
}else{
alert("Postcode not found!");
}
});
localSearch.execute(postcode + ", UK");
}
Any ideas/tips would be be much appreciated Hey I'm quite new at javascript and am currently in the process of creating a site that embeds google maps using an xml document. What I'm trying to do is categories the markers on my map. I am trying to make it so there are check boxes at the bottom and when i check the boxes, i.e. theatres, the markers will appear for the theatres and disappear when unchecked. Using some example code i have modified, i have so far got the maps to pickup the markers from the xml with the check boxes but the markers are all just on the page and the check boxes dont do anything and I am stuck as to of why. here's my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML>

If anybody help with this and tell me where I am going wrong, it would be much appreciated. thanks I'm completely at a loss how to embed a map with the new google maps api setup. I found a snippet of code that I dropped in with some small database variables pulled in and was done. Then an error came that the API was no good. So I went in and set up an anaccount, got an api and now I just simply have no clue what their instructions are saying I need to do. Gah! Here's what I originally had: I now have a Client ID, client secret and stuff. But no clue how to set up this url, etc. Code: </script>

Hey all I'm quite a newbie at javascript and I'm trying to have links to google maps markers. I have a page with my embeded google maps on it and some markers. What I'm basically looking to do is have a web page with a menu down the side and when you click the menu items, the google maps markers would pop up on the map. For example, city attractions down a side menu and when you click say restaurants, the markers would pop up the location restaurants in a certain place, then you could click pubs and the restaurant markers would dissapear and the pub markers would appear. Can anyboy help me with this or even direct me to some code that would help. Thanks all. My google maps is showing a grey box and no map?! Please help me, I got my code from he http://www.powerhut.co.uk/googlemaps/custom_markers.php and uploaded everything to the right place but it's just grey?! http://79.170.40.235/affordableappli...uk/contact.php Hey all, I was wondering if someone would be able to help me with a problem I've been having. I'm attempting to find coordinates for several addresses at a time. I'm using a for-loop to loop through an array of addresses. I figured it would be best to have a separate function to evaluate the coordinate given an address, and just call it in every loop. Note that my code below is simplified (I removed the for loop because that's not where I'm having trouble). I know that the issue is probably because I'm trying to return a value from an anonymous function... I tried making the variable global, I tried having a return line from within the anonymous function, nothing has worked... any tips? Thanks -- Code follows Code: function initialize(){
var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder(); // creating a new geocode object
var locCood = findcood('44106', geocoder);
}
function findcood(addr, geocoder)
{
var cood;
if (geocoder) {
geocoder.geocode({'address': addr}, function(results, status, cood){
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK)
cood = results[0].geometry.location;
else {
cood = null;
alert("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status);
}
});
}
else
{
alert("No Geocode");
cood = null;
}
alert(cood);
return cood;
}
I need help making this script output a route on the map on top of the dollar amount it outputs right now. Here is a link to what im working on http://stallionshockey.org/testweb/ Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks, Josh Hi, Not sure how difficult this will be but im working on a javascript/HTML5 game, and thought it would be interesting to allow for people to add their score to a google map at their location. I can get the google map and allow people to add their own markers but i dont no how i would store them, and then reload them when someone plays the game. any ideas? Thanks, Luke hello all, what i would like to implement is the following : http://mon.grnet.gr/network/maps/lite/?load&ip but, the problem is that, although the numerical data that show the traffic volume passing through a link are available to me, i do not have clue on how i can display them onto the map ... ? i would be thankful, if you could give me a piece of advice. Hello! I'm developing a small application with Google Maps API for use in Wordpress and didn't want to place all the javascript into the Worpress page template file. But whenever I place the javascript that works fine in page tempalte into separate javascript file in Wordpress, all of the code using Google Maps API except the code that runs Maps itself stops working. So the Maps runs but for example Geocoder does not. I'm simulatenously using Google's jQuery API. I hope someone has experience with this and can help me. Hello, 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): Code: <!!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

The XML is set up like this: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <rp> <partner company="nameofcompany1" short="name1" street="123 fake street" city="New York" state="New York" zip="12345" lat="52.45545612" lng="-0.52664" /> <partner company="nameofcompany2" short=name2" street="231 notreal street" city="Chicago" state="IL" zip="23456" lat="55.45646" lng="-0.895423" /> </rp> I'm not really concerned with geocoding using the code, the number of entries shouldn't be more than a couple dozen, and I won't be adding a bunch at a single time. I was able to get the map working how I would like it, with multiple infowindows and markers, but I was having to put each into the code manually, with unique variables for each marker and info window. It seems like there is a much cleaner way to do this. If anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated. Hello i have a problem i need to resolve here is the script Code: script src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2.x&key=ABQIAAAAzr2EBOXUKnm_jVnk0OJI7xSosDVG8KKPE1-m51RBrvYughuyMxQ-i1QfUnH94QxWIa6N4U6MouMmBA" type="text/javascript"></script>

<body onload="initialize()" onunload="GUnload()">
<form action="#" onsubmit="showAddress(this.address.value); return false">
<p>
<input type="text" size="60" name="address" value="1600 Amphitheatre Pky, Mountain View, CA" />
<input type="submit" value="Go!" />
</p>
<div id="map_canvas" style="width: 500px; height: 300px"></div>
</form>
</body>
its all working well but i need to use it differently. Is there a way to make the form submit automatically , i already have the address and i will <php> it from my database. i want that the map will show in the page as soon as the user clicked on an ad(real estate ad). Basically what we need here is: To know how to call the functions and give the address from the database. <body onload="initialize()" onunload="GUnload()"> <form action="#" onsubmit="showAddress(this.address.value); return false"> <p> <input type="text" size="60" name="address" value="1600 Amphitheatre Pky, Mountain View, CA" /> <input type="submit" value="Go!" /> </p> <div id="map_canvas" style="width: 500px; height: 300px"></div> </form> </body> Is there a way just to use this command without the form onsubmit="showAddress(this.address.value); return false">? And give the address as a variable ? and when the page is uploading it will have already passed the address and the map will show Danny |
