I am working on a project and am at a point where I am unable to go any further and need some serious assistance. Let me give you some background.
I am working on a service that will let users riding bikes to the same destination from multiple starting points coordinate their rides. Part of the workflow we've designed has users building maps using the Google Maps service; they enter a starting destination, Google creates a route it thinks will work, and then users can tailor that route by dragging points to meet their particular needs. We have this interface developed and working nicely at: http://ridestreaming.com/google_maps/ Where I've hit an impassable wall is in how to get the user-edited route out of Google Maps and saved in the database for future reference. It seems like we have a method for doing that in our Javascript, in this file (lines 344-352): http://ridestreaming.com/google_maps/workflow.js var newString = JSON.stringify(directions); //set up area to place drop directionsResponse object string var directions_response_panel = document.getElementById("directions_response"); //dump any contents in directions_response_panel directions_response_panel.innerHTML = ""; //add JSON string to it directions_response_panel.innerHTML = "<pre>" + newString + "</pre>"; //run the ajax runAjax(directions); We can get the route data out as a JSON file, stringify it, and send it via AJAX to a PHP file where we intend to process it and store it in MySQL. However, the JSON being returned from Google Maps appears to be malformed; PHP freaks out when it tries to decode it, and I ran it through a validator online which confirmed its malformness. It is at this point that we are completely baffled and have no idea how to move forward. Is there any chance this anybody might be able to assist with this? I am at the point of bashing my head against a wall. Any response at all is greatly appreciated.
