is it possible to use Bing Maps or Google Maps (or any other) and mark countries on a world map? I have some countries in SQL DB depending on the logged in user, e.g. France, Mexico, Australia, Japan. These countries should be mark on a world map. Is this possible?
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?
I am trying to use the Bing Maps Ajax Control to plot pins of locations stored in a database to the bing map on a web page. All the locations are geocoded and the lat longs stored in the database. I am using ASP.NET (C#), but can't figure out or find any tutorials on how to go about doing this. All I can find are articles on how to import shapes into a map from either GeoRSS, Bing Maps, and KML.
I have used (and paid for ;o) the excellent control from Simplovations to do alot of what I need to do, namely working with my data as normal in the code behind, getting a DataSet of my locations and plotting the points to the map. It has been great, but I want to know how to do it with out using a third party control. My main reason for wanting this is to be able to cluster my pins and hopefully learn a bit of Javascript along the way. Does anyone know how to do this or can point me to any tutorials or articles online that can help me on my way. I have been searching the net for days now and can't find anything :(
How to display Bing map dynamically in an ASP.NET website based on the address provided. I do not have latitude and longitude for the address so I have to pass address directly and display the map.
Does Bing has an option similar to Google Custom Search or Yahoo where I can use Bing to power the search results on my site?
Couple requirements:
Works with an ASP.NET site (is a .NET project) Host the search box and results on my own website Ability to customize the look and feel of the results to match my site (Full control is ideal but I understand it's not possible with free solutions)
I did a search for Bing custom search and found this: [URL] but it's not exactly what I am looking for.
I'm trying to find the best way to implement Bing maps into my ASP.NET MVC2 web application.
I came accross MvcMaps Preview1 on Codeplex but it doesn't work good, at least for me. Maybe that's because it's for .NET 3.5 and VS2008, I don't know.
I'd like to avoid Silverlight. what should I use and what's the easiest way to get a Bing Map show some data on it?

My client has customers in 100 countries in which a customer can have access to more than a country. So, to show visual appearance to the customer, our client want to show world map and fill each country with a different color where the customer has access to.
Is there anyway to do this in ASP.NET?
If not ASP.NET, Is their any third party which does this stuff.
I have a website that is written in english. I am starting to get users from other countries. They speak english so it is not a problem as yet. But what is involved in adding multi language features to a site? Do you need to actually do the translations? For example, I have users from Slovenia which - I think uses some sort of cryllic alphabet. What is necessary to do this?
Is there anyway you can get search results powered by bing, without using bing box as it just launches results in a javascript applet, I mean fully hosted on site like on here or microsoft's site? I understand a full sitemap will be needed although that easy enough using webmaster tools. I think that all the detail I need to provide, as I dont want too use Google custom search as I have to display ads and crap via adsense.
I have a client who wants me to block his site from certain countries. Each month I add all the new IP address ranges for these countries into a sql database. If the user has a blocked IP address, the site directs them to a phoney 504 error page. This way it doesn't appear that the site is being blocked, but rather is just having difficulites. Thats the way we want it.
It works fine however, there are some users (5%) who get a 500 error. No rhyme or reason. It works across all browsers and operating systems. I have no way of finding out why from my hosting service. I can't dupliate it. I have the following code that runs at Page_Init
how to display the All countries date and time in C# I have one dropdown list and one label and one submit button in DropDown list i have add all countries list like GMT + 05:30 Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, New Delhiwhen i select the particular list and press submit button to display.
In my Bing Ajax Map app the user is presented with a list of locations they can choose from. OnRowClick the map center and zooms on that places location. After it has focused on that location, it shows the info window for it as well.
The problem is that the info window seems to be loading before the map has finished panning. This causes the info window to appear in the wrong spot, or not at all. For now I've put the show info method in a setTimeout tag to give it another second before loading the information, but its a fairly ugly hack and still doesn't work 100% of the time.
using the bing map API, can I make a server-side call and get lat/long for a given city? I can do it on the client side using JavaScript, but I need something more robust in this case and want to use the server side.
I am working on a site where I need to set different countries get restricted. The selected countries don't able to download the contet of that site? How do I do this.
I have 2 listboxes. 1 listbox displays all countries. then I have added 2 buttons, Add and Remove, to add and remove the selected countries from first listbox to second listbox. how can I move selected countries from one list box to another listbox in MVC framework.I am using Linq.
If you have a global navigation tree, Countries --> States --> Cities for example, how do you correctly implement this in MVC2? In my example, the view model for States does not contain Countries and the tree would break as it needs the Countries list to build the tree. It sounds like this should be easy, but it doesn't sound right to include the entire model for a single State or City view.
I'm trying to create a User Registration page in ASP.NET and wondering what is the best way to get the list of up-to-date Countries and Cities? Are there any Web Services on the web that I can use to retrieve such information? If not, what are the options?
