With Google Maps, Can Use Google's Own Popup Windows
Jan 11, 2011
I've implemented a google map with points and stuff that uses an address that the user inputs. When you click a point, the popup bubble appears with the name and address in.Often this name and address is a prominent location, as it's used for meetings and things, such as a university. If you google the address yourself on maps.google.co.uk then you get google's own popup bubble, which often has a photo, information, opening hours, links to directions, reviews, etc. etc.I am wondering if there's a way to use that popup dialog instead of my own, where it is available. I can't see anything in the API to do this.I'm using V2 as we support IE6 in a lot of our users, but I've been told recently I can upgrade to V3 should I need functionality from it.
When a marker is clicked, I'd like to display a popup.
this is easy, my problem is that the popup needs to be updated from the database before and the popup has some links that should be inside an UpdatePanel to avoid refresh.
I can use the marker function to display a popup (with a given html) how to get the html with the updatepanel .
I thougt about using the ajax popup control but I don't know how to position it on the marker.
just want to add the effect of map momentum by the dragging of map as in maps.google.com has. currently on my map where i stop dragging the map stops there but in maps.google.com if you drag a mouse the map will not stop there it will continue the movement in the same direction for a second or few cordinates (i dont know basically), but I want the same thing on my google map. I am using GMap2.
I need to use a map in an application that I develop. In my application I want to use pins that will show infoboxes on the map. Use the zoom in, zoom out functionality and the ability to show several maps on the same page. I won't need to use the search locations or routing directions.Which type of maps should I use? Google or Bing? As I understand, they both have good user interface, but which one is easier to develop with? If I'll use Bing then will it be more Microsoft like, I mean, it will let me use visual studio convenient programming? More or less javascript so it will be a hassle do debug it?
am working on google maps api to store the latittude and longitude into the MS Access Database..I want to add the markers to the particular locations and store it onto the database...
I am developing a cms that will use more than one domain and i have to use only one google map script in my page. Is there a way to use google maps without api key? Otherwise it's not working?
If you map a google maps application and want to store every location the user clicks on, how can you store that data in vb.net/asp.net in a collection, with the intention of putting it in a database later.
I'm pretty sure I know how to store it in javascript, perhaps with an array, but I'm unsure of how to transfer that into the application (Without sticking it in visible text that the user sees or adding it to a form).
I am creating a business directory website which has street addresses stored in the database. I would like to calculate the distance from a given zipcode to the street address using google maps in ASP.Net. I don't even know where to begin.
I used it as my POC and created a .net project from the concept. I now have markers and infoWindows being populated from the database which is pretty cool.
My problem is I want to add InfoWindows in a slick way (not only to the map, but also save to the db). Instead of having .net controls outside of the map window I want to be able to add info to the map directly. If the user clicks in the map I would like to be able to add a marker and InfoWindow with asp controls in the window (textbox and button).
<html> <head> <title> title here </title> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=true"></script>
So far I use [URL] to get the longitude and lattitude of some address.
function load() { if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) { map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('"mapHolderID'); map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl()); map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl()); map.setCenter(new GLatLng(lattitude,longitude), 15); var point=new GLatLng(lattitudelongitude); map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point); } }
So if user enters Downtown it would take the user to downtown. Now what I want is that if user searches for downtown resturants search result should point to downtown as well as list all the resturants in downtown.
I am creating a business directory website which has street addresses stored in the database. I would like to calculate the distance from a given zipcode to the street address using google maps in ASP.Net.I don't even know where to begin.
I need to develop a feature for one of my website by which user can track any mobile number on Google maps just like the link below.Go o the following link and enter the 9810098109 number in textbox to find its location on map. http://wwwa.way2sms.com/jsp/LocateMobile.jspI want to know either this page is using a third party tool to get the latitude and longitude along with service provider and draw the map accordingly or its some sort of feature provided by Google ?
I am trying to incorporate Google Maps into my site using vb.net. I want the map to show based on an address that is coming from SQL. I am not having much luck.
In my web page displaying the list of products with address (store location) and hyper link say 'map' in gridview. Beside gridview there is one google map embedded in div. when ever user clicks on 'map' hyper link in girdview the corresponding location should show in popup in google maps. In my database i have only complete address for the each products.
I am attempting to create an ASP.NET website that incorporates Google Maps to geocode the location of bus stops that the user selects from a gridview that is bound to a SQL database. Any ideas on how to use a buttonfield to pass the address (text) for a given row to a command that will geocode that address and place a marker on the map?
