> Google's newbie > info is remiss in not stressing this point. What newbie info? To be fair, that isn't a Maps issue. There's a hundred other good-practice areas Google could touch on in the Maps docs as well, if they wanted to repurpose them as general web authoring tutorials. The developers introduction does say http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/basics.html#Audience "This documentation is designed for people familiar with JavaScript programming and object-oriented programming concepts."
The tutorial/articles say things like http://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlinfo_v3.html "Developers following this tutorial should have some HTML/JavaScript/ Google Maps API v3 experience, as well as PHP/MySQL knowledge." In my view they really shouldn't be going into much detail on e.g. php best practice. Having said all that, I do think a line pointing out that these are _examples_ and not finished applications would be worthwhile, and the reader would need to make further development with security, robustness, etc in mind. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
