I've got a page that retrieves a bunch of locations and some data about their associated markers and puts them on a Google Maps map. Each one is supposed to pop up its own little message when clicked on. However, clicking on ANY of them makes the most recently added message pop up at the most recently added marker. What gives?

I'm trying to add disqus comments per-marker on a google map. To make it per-marker, I've added an iframe to the infowindow, with a different URL for each marker. It works, and I can post comments, but the infowindow isn't updated after a successful post; the spinner remains. Firebug says: Access to 'file:///foo/gmap/comments.html?dsq=1...
This is more a general question but my particular case involves a ruby/rails app using the Google map APIs (v2). I'd like to take a lat/long point and get an address (standard rev geocode) and then take that address one step further to see if there is a specific business name associated with it. So, as an example say (numbers pulled ou...

I have a google-maps mashup that worked fairly well with "small" test files - every file I generated, even for a 60 mile trip, was less than 16k. Then, yesterday, a user sent me a KML file they were having problems with - it's over 360k in size and, while it uploads okay, and when I call GGeoXML(), it appears to load into Google Maps ok...

I am planning an app that will need the ability to look up the elevation of geographic points by lat/lng. Ideally I would like something that would work worldwide, but US-only would also suffice. I have looked at using the USGS Elevation Query Web Service, however it only allows you to query for one point at a time, and I will need to lo...

What I'm doing is that I have a function that is called everytime the map is moves or panned or zoomed which takes the bound of the map and makes an ajax call which in turn the server side script runs a simple sql query to ...

Hiya, I'm using streetview as an embed in one of my pages. I'd really like to remove the streetview controls though, or at least change their position to the top right, instead of the default top left. My javascript code is controlling the embed, and the API documentation suggests that "streetview" is just another layer on top of the ...
I currently have Google Maps integrated into my webpage. It is being used to tell the user where an event is (generally, it's a user submitted event). The previous programmer put it the functionality to center the map on a latitude and longitude, if you knew it. However, most people don't know the latitude and longitude of locations (som...
