Is it possible to programatically generate markers in Google? For example, I have a database of services and locations that I want to plot on a Google Map using PHP. Using the Maps API v3, I have created a map and plotted the services fine using markers and info windows, but what I really want to do is generate numbers (1,2,3,4... etc.)...
Hiya All, I have a bit of strange problem on this page: http://www.bluprintliving.com/locations it seems that the markers i want to display are showing up in Firefox but not showing up on Chrome/Safari or IE. I am not sure really where to start debugging this issue as there are no javascript errors. The code is in two parts. The first...

I am designing an application in C++ to view and edit a map of a fictional planet. How it works will be similar to Google Maps. I would like the user to be able to see their current position in latitude/longitude and world coordinates on the GUI. How can I convert a latitude and longitude values to "world coordinates" and back, as in Go...
I want to populate the infowindow of my google maps markers with dynamic content. When the user clicks on a marker, an AJAX call should be triggered that fetches the corresponding content from the server. Meanwhile the infowindow should be opened and display a preloading message. Once the AJAX response arrives, it should replace the pr...
I'm running into a little problem with my infowindows: when a marker is close enough to the edge of the map that the map needs to pan to display the full infowindow, it does so but not enough to allow for a few pixels of space between the infowindow and the border of the map. Technically this works because content is made visible but it ...

I'm fairly new to gmaps and Im using v2 because of the search function that I didnt find in v3. I've got an array of data that I want to loop through and put the markers on the map =) It seems really easy but I cant get it to work with v2 at all...

Hi, I'm trying to add a button to a googlemap infowindow so that when the user clicks on the button ajax is used to update a table of points outside the Map. I can open the infoWindow and add 2 button Save/Delete. Delete simply removes the marker and closes the infoWindow. Outside of the map I've successfully set up the Rails code to...
I'm planning to make a web app where users can register for free. The app will contain a map, and I will most probably use OpenStreetMap data. The problem I've encountered with open libs as for example OpenLayers is that they're really slow and choppy when adding a lot of markers (which will be totally unacceptable). I think the renderin...

Google Terms says I can only use reverse geocoding in conjunction with a google map. Is it ok if you first see the address in a uitableviewcell and then on a click see the location in a map (is this "in conjunction") ? Tried two other free services but they don't find all locations as it seems. Edit I see in an answer that I need to c...
So, I've run into a problem implementing a double click event in Google Maps. The code here works perfectly in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer the double click event rarely fires. I think that the problem is the one listed here: http://webbugtrack.blogspot.com/2008/01/bug-263-beware-of-doubleclick-in-ie.html basically that instead o...

Hello, I currently managed to integrate OpenStreetMap into Google Maps API as it is described in this example. I wonder if I can also integrate Bing Maps tiles into Google Maps API. Is it possible? I could not find anything about that. Note: I do know about mapstraction but for now, I would like to stick to Google Maps API. Thanks in ...
I am having a problem where if I fit bounds to a single marker there is often no satellite imagery. Is there a way I can set the map to the closest zoom level that still has satellite imagery? I am using Google Maps API V3. ...
I read somewhere in Google's reference (and I can not find it again) that the shadow for the map marker should be at a 45 degree angle. What is the transformation to apply to the original image to achieve this? By eyeball it looks like it could be a horizontal shear of about 50% followed by a vertical compression to 50%, but I suspect it...
