I am trying to create a page with a map that will center on an
address. The address can vary, and needs to be geocoded each time
because it is coming from a database that changes often. I cant quite
seem to get the script to do what I want, and I'm not that experienced
with Javascript. The variable address is set to "california" right now
but eventually the variable "address" will be constructed by pulling
URL parameters. But first I need to get the map to work by centering
on a geocoded address automatically when loading. Any help?
I've been trying different things but here's what I'm working with
right now:
function initialize() {
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
map.setCenter(new GLatLng(37.4419, -122.1419), 13);
var geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
var address = "california"
geocode.getLatLng(address, function(point) {
if (!point) {
alert("Unable to locate, check the address");
} else {
map.setCenter(point, 13);
var marker = new GMarker(point);
map.addOverlay(marker);
}
});
}
}
