Question

Answer 1

A:

in your code, at line

map.setCenter(new GLatLng(lat, lon), 5);

the setCenter method takes just one parameter, for the lat:long location. Why are you passing two parameters there ?

I suggest you should change it to,

map.setCenter(new GLatLng(lat, lon));

@phoenix24: `setCenter()` takes an optional zoom parameter, so there's nothing wrong with that: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/reference.html#GMap2.setCenter

oh! apologies; I'll edit my response above.

@Daniel I think the optional paramater has been deprecated in the GoogleMapsV3 APIs. http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/v3/reference.html

@phoenix24: Yes, actually the entire API changed in V3. The OP is using v2 however. This can be deduced from the "classes" starting with the `G` prefix. The v3 uses the `google.maps` namespace instead.

Answer 2

A:

 function resize() {
        var map_obj = document.getElementById("map_canvas");

      /*  map_obj.style.width = "500px";
        map_obj.style.height = "225px";*/
        if (map) {
            map.checkResize();
            map.panTo(new GLatLng(lat,lon));
        }
    }

<body onload="initialize()" onunload="GUnload()" onresize="resize()">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
</div>

Answer 3

A:

I searched and searched and finally found that ie needs to know the map size. Set the map size to match the div size.

map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas2"), { size: new GSize(850, 600) });
