Hey Everyone,

I have a question about php & javascript... Yes I know this forum is for php BUT I needed an opinion on where to look for stuff...

I have a application that I'm working on that uses google maps to display interactive maps (using javascript) on the website. I now have the need to display multiple maps on the same page and from what I can tell I have to create new instances and variables for all of them...

What I'm wondering is since I know very little javascript would it be bad to create a PHP function to write the java code for the proper number of maps I need to display? The map info is being pulled from a database where events are being added and could contain 2 or 200 maps...

Or should I learn javascript and figure out how to create a loop in there so that I can just loop it in the java and not repeat code?

Thanks for any assistance you can give!

Love the lists@ email address there.

My preference would be to invest some time in frontend (JavaScript) skills, as that would be the most "proper" way to implement it. If you don't have the time, might as well use whatever tools you are most comfortable with. Could turn into a bit of a mess though.

Hey Josh,

Yeah the lists@ address just makes it easier since I am syncing email with my smart phone I didn't want to get all of this list plus the many others I'm on to get synced... I doubt my phone could handle it hehehe.

In the long run I want to learn javascript... But this new requirement just popped up on me on a project that I was working on... So I was gauging what was going to be easier :)

Thanks for the response!
