[Google Maps API v3] The Google Maps Javascript API License and code libraries

2012-06-04 Thread TheWebProgrammer
I was wondering if anyone has seen the The Google Maps Javascript API License https://developers.google.com/maps/terms section 10.2(a) and if their term "wrapper" would apply to freely available code libraries such as gmaps.js . 10.2 *Restrictions on t

This is a sample of my code that works on an Android. Maybe it will help you. // This function makes the map function InitializeMap(idElement,renderType) { var initialLocation; var browserSupportFlag = new Boolean(); var Location=new Array(); var idElements = idElement.split("-"

Oh dear lord, I'm dumb. I forgot what the "A" in AJAX stands for. $.getJSON(); is asynchronous! iOS's JavaScript engine was obviously not getting the information back from the jQuery .getJSON() function fast enough. Hence, it was trying to pass off an "undefined" value to Google Maps API. Al

Thanks for this. We run MS SQL for a database and may be storing location data in it in the future. May I ask what the third value is in the Microsoft SQL Server Geography Point type is? Elevation? Point ID? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google M

Thanks for the tip about Windows Phone. Unfortunately, no one here has a Windows phone. It might be crapping out on another issue I noticed related to jQuery Mobile that I have not fully debugged. But that's for another message board. :-) iOS is asking if it is okay to use location data. So

I've tested this in the iOS simulator (iOS 3.2, 4.0.1, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3) all have the same Javascript error from the Google Maps API: "https://maps-api-ssl.google.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/api-3/5/2a/main.jsInvalid value for property : undefined" Again, here is the prototype: 1. https://wsnet.uchic

I was able to get the markers to appear when specifying the full URL location if the 'icon', (even though it is located just one directory over). But another issue popped up. All of my desktop browsers (Windows IE8, Windows and Mac Firefox 4.0.1, Windows and Mac Chrome 11, Mac Safari 5.0.5 show

Nick, This is probably not the case, but wanted to make sure the obvious was not overlooked. In case your surrounding code somehow calls the Google Maps API differently on iPhone and Android, that the Android devices are call it with "sensor=true" http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation

I'm thinking the location needs to be near a routable path. On 'maps.google.com', I dropped a start location in the middle of Lake Michigan and tried to route to my house. It told me "We could not calculate directions". I did the same from the middle of a forest preserve and a cemetery, it g

[Google Maps API v3] Markers not appearing on map

Hi all, I'm trying to put a few markers on a map. They are not showing up. Firefox's error console and firebug are silent on the issue. I also put a WALKING direction path between them. That is showing up fine. This is a jQuery Mobile web application built dynamically upon data from Google Fusi
