[Google Maps API v3] Re: Tiling Issues on Apple iPod Touch (possibly iPhone also?)
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 On Dec 1, 4:55 pm, gavinharriss wrote: > Hi Andrew, thanks for that - much appreciated.

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.

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?!

Re: [Google Maps API v3] Re: Tiling Issues on Apple iPod Touch (possibly iPhone also?)
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? -G -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

Re: [Google Maps API v3] Re: Tiling Issues on Apple iPod Touch (possibly iPhone also?)
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. -G On Dec 1, 2010, at 2:39 PM, gavinharriss wrote: > 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.

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.

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

Hi Rossko, I take it you didn't find the screenshot useful for illustrating what was happening then?! Having a bad day?
