I'm new at this, but I have a Google V3 map that loads from the user's W3C browser geocode info, and I pull country, state, and city from the geocode object and update input boxes. If the user enters a street address, I want to geocode it via Google and change map.setCenter and setZoom, and display the updated map. When that works, I want to add a marker and infowindow. Despite hours of research and trials, I can't get the geocode and update to work. The Developer Tool in Chrome seems to indicate that execution ceases/fails at the geocoder.geocode line that is indicated in bold below. This is a localhost development, but here's relevant code.
var map, geocoder, marker, infowindow; //global variables function initializeMap() { // Try W3C Geolocation to geolocate desktop user //initialize Google map, geolocate desktop user, and display after page loads //find country, state, and city for the user's location - this all works } window.onload = initializeMap; //change the Google Map after a user enters a street address $("#streetAddress").blur(function() { //if state, city and street address locations are present if ( $(this).val().length > 0 && $("#state").val().length > 0 && $("#city3").val().length > 0 ) { var gAddress = [$(this).val() + ", " + $("#city3").val() + ", " + $("#state").val()] ; //get coordinates of this address //if no geocode object exists, create one if (!geocoder) { geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder(); //create Geocoder object else use existing one from initializeMap() ? } //create a GeocoderRequest object with user's street address var geoCoderRequest = {address: gAddress} //make a Geocoder request geocoder.geocode( geoCoderRequest, function(results, status) { *//this line fails* //check if status is OK if ( status === google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) { //update center of existing map on location returned for this address map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location); map.setZoom(14); } }); } else { return; //no action if gAddress is incomplete } }); -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
