Hi.

I want to use a string formatted: 'descriptive text @ lat,lng' as part
of a DirectionsRequest.

A string formatted like that works with v2 of the API, but not it
seems with v3?

If you look at this v2 map:

http://www.tinemuller.dk/test_drupal/

Select København from the 'Region Hovedstaden' list.
Click any marker or sidebar element and in the infowindow click 'Add
to Ruteplan'.
You can see the Adresse text input completed with a query formatted as
above.

Complete 2 or more of the text inputs and click 'Get directions' and
it works just as intended.
When the directions are recieved by the map then the 'href' attribute
of the 'See this rute on maps.google.com' link is updated so that a
click on that links shows the route on a map at maps.google.com.

Now on the v3 map it doesn't work:
http://beta.findtoilet.dk/

Again select København from the 'Region Hovedstaden' list - you might
need to select 'Select a city' and then København to trigger the code.

Click a marker or sidebar element and then in the infowindow the
'Route planner' link, as with the v2 code the text inputs value is set
to a string formatted as above.
Add 2 or more places and click Get directions and you'll get an alert
box 'Sorry, the map was unable to obtain directions for the route'.

Using Firebug i see that the value of the DirectionsStatus in my code
is 'NOT_FOUND'.

Now if you select all text in the input up to and including the space
after the ampersand and click Get directiosn again you'll see it
works.

I've searched the group and found nothing to indicate that the
formatted string is no longer supported in the API.

Can anyone tell me if that's the case - that a string formatted as i
have is not a valid DirectionsRequest?

Thanks.

Martin.
