one more option is to keep @mapped_sites to a javascript variable so you dont have to use ajax. you might also want to move the makeMarker part to a js function to tidy up the view and just call that function when you need to update the colors something along the lines of var sites = <%= @mapped_sites.to_json %>; addCircles(sites); function addCircles(circles) { for(i=0; i<circles.length; i++) { center = new google.maps.LatLng(circles[i][0], circles[i][1]); siteCircle = makeMarker({ position: center, strokeColor: "#FF0000", strokeOpacity: 0.8, strokeWeight: 2, fillColor: circles[i][7], fillOpacity: 0.75, radius: 560, map: map, center: center, radius: circles[i][2], title: circles[i][5], content: 'content' }); } } then you just need to update the sites variable using js. no need to go back to the server. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > On Thu, Dec 8, 2011 at 1:10 AM, skrite <sh...@skrite.net> wrote: > > > > > Hey all, > > > i have a google map and i am drawing circles on the map like this.. > > > > > var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(35.931387, > > > -102.31062); > > > var myMapOptions = > > > { > > > zoom: > > > 12, > > > center: > > > latlng, > > > mapTypeId: > > > google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID > > > }; > > > > > var map = new > > > google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), > > > myMapOptions); > > > var infoWindow = new > > > google.maps.InfoWindow(); > > > var markerBounds = new > > > google.maps.LatLngBounds(); > > > > > <% @mapped_sites.each do |row| > > > %> > > > > > // main > > > circle > > > center = new google.maps.LatLng(<%= "#{row[0]}" %>, <%= > > > "#{row[1]}" > > > %>); > > > siteCircle = > > > makeMarker({ > > > position: > > > center, > > > strokeColor: > > > "#FF0000", > > > strokeOpacity: > > > 0.8, > > > strokeWeight: > > > 2, > > > fillColor: '<%= "#{row[7]}" > > > %>', > > > fillOpacity: > > > 0.75, > > > radius: > > > 560, > > > map: > > > map, > > > center: > > > center, > > > radius: <%= "#{row[2]}" > > > %>, > > > title: '<%= "#{row[5]}" > > > %>', > > > content: '<%= "some contnet > > > %>' > > > }); > > > > > markerArray.push(siteCircle); > > > > > my question is, that since the fillColor is going to change from time > > > to time, i want to update all the colors of the circles periodically. > > > What i don't know how to do is get the equivelent to the > > > @mapped_sites because if i could, i think i could just delete the > > > existing circles and draw new ones. > > > > > How do i get info back from the server periodically to update the > > > circle colors? > > > > > thanks to all. > > > skrite > > > > > -- > > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > > > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk@googlegroups.com > . > > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > > > For more options, visit this group athttp:// > groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > > > > -- > > > > Regards, > > L.KarthiKeyan. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > > -- ------------------------------------------------------------- visit my blog at http://jimlabs.heroku.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
