[Google Maps API v3] Re: Tiling Issues on Apple iPod Touch (possibly iPhone also?)

2010-12-30 Thread Jason
Hi,

I'm experiencing the same issue on the iphone 3GS iOS 4.2 with
ImageMapType. Jumbled overlay tiles (and Google Tiles) after 30
seconds or so of zooming/panning. Everything works fine on a laptop.
If it is indeed the safari mobile cache limit has anyone figured out a
workaround?

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Andrew, thanks for that - much appreciated. Sounds like a solid
explanation of what's going on. Now all I need to do is figure out if
I can work-around the issue by somehow freeing map tiles from memory
that are no longer in the viable area. Cheers :)

Gregory - thanks for pointing out the "use my location" functionality
outside the US issue. Hadn't occurred to me that this might happen.
I'll code a fix up for this too. Thank you.

2010-12-01 Thread gavinharriss
Hi Gregory, I posted a link to the actual site http://m.topomap.co.nz/
so people could see the issue live and also a screenshot
http://i56.tinypic.com/2ciehs7.png as I figured someone might have
seen this sort of thing before and be able to provide advice without
needing to visit my site and spend some time trying to recreate the
issue (as all seems fine when site is initially visited, doesn't
happen till after 30 secs of so of playing for me).

Was just puzzled why Rossko posted a sarcastic reply. I can only
assume it was sarcastic as line 272 is a bit vague else. Who knows, he
might have been trying to be helpful and in a rush but I totally
misinterpreted?!

I'm looking at that site on my iphone and everything looks just fine.

One thing to note is that if I let it use my location, which is Iowa, USA, the 
topo imagery never shows up, even when I go to New Zealand manually. If I 
refuse the request, it starts me at New Zealand and the topo imagery shows up 
fine. Might want to look into that.

In any event, perhaps you just suffering some faulty tile-caching?

Wait, I'm confused...you did post a link, but was the problem actually that 
that same link behaves differently in a desktop browser than on the iphone? I 
was under the impression you were using something from that site, in your *own* 
site, elsewhere. I guess I just completely mis-read what you were saying there.

Fair enough then - just figured it might have been helpful to post a
screenshot rather than forcing people to get on an iPhone / iPod to
try and re-create for themselves if curious to the visual side of
things. I'll remember not to post sceenshots from now on if the
community frowns upon it.

You already described *what* was happening, what you actually want is help with 
*why* it's happening. So no, a screenshot doesn't do much to help with that.

Check out the posting guidelines:
