Hi All, Quick question regarding Google Maps, AJAX and some back end data. How would I go about creating google map that updates in "real time" with information I have stored in the database?

When I switch to gmap, the coordinates show up on the map but I can't get any info on the coordinates/markers. I am very very stuck. I have gone at this several different ways. You can see the example here: http://speakitnow.com/immersi...
Google Maps can now pinpoint my location with street precision with the help of Firefox. I understand this is a new feature of HTML 5 compatible browsers and that the location is fetched by using some sort of feature of the connected WiFi network (I hope I'm not making any silly assumptions). What I intend to know is how this whole pro...
According to the Geocoder documentation, the class provides methods into a backend service which may or may not exist on the device. If the geocoder doesn't exist on the device, theoretically a geocode request will return no results. However, how can one differentiate between no results due to there being no backend geocoder service vs...

Hi, I am trying to understand how developing applications with Google map works. I have skimmed a number of tutorials but all of them seem to jump to the code from the beginning. What I am looking for is an explanation, or a set of diagrams, to depict which distinct data sources there are. And who handles events and how? I am not sure ...
Hi, I'm using a jQuery plug-in "Boxy" (http://onehackoranother.com/projects/jquery/boxy/) to open a pop-up layer and show a map on it. It works perfectly on all browsers except IE (7 & 8).
