Google Maps Problem ;(
Posted: Sat Dec 05, 2009 8:12 am
I am currently trying to get the center of a point on a Google Map. Ive used the Google Maps API to get the map, and am trying to get the Lattitude, Longitude values.
My Javascript code is:
I need to get the Lattitude/Long values of locations. From a developers viewpoint, Ive used a hack (http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2403/goo ... de_values/), but I need to make it an automatic process so that the long/lat values appear underneath the map.
Im slowly picking up more and more javascript, and I tried the following:
This didn't work - gApplication.getMap() is a call from the hack (see link above).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

My Javascript code is:
Code: Select all
script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-29.966889,30.945416);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 15,
center: latlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="initialize()">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:25%; height:25%"></div>
Im slowly picking up more and more javascript, and I tried the following:
Code: Select all
<script type = "text/javascript">
document.write(gApplication.getMap().getCenter());
</script>Any help would be appreciated.
