Subject: Help With Google Map In Popup Window
Reply to author | Forward | Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author
Everyone,

I am trying to build a popup window using Google Maps, while not using
a preconfigured web page for the popup window (build the entire page
from scratch).  My popup window hangs whenever I add the line for the
API key, and does not finish loading the page.  I am sure that it's
something simple, but I am not a Java guru.  Any help on this would be
greatly appreciated.

Below is the code I am generating to build the popup window.  Thanks
again.

Bruce

FYI, my onLoad event would normally have all of the mapping API code,
but I need to get past this loading error first.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
        function createMapPopup()
        {
        var generator=window.open('',null,'left=500, top=100, height=475,
width=500, status=no, resizeable=no, scrollbars=no, toolbar=no,
location=no, menubar=no');
        generator.document.write('<%@ Page Language="C#"
AutoEventWireup="true" Title="Map Results"%>\n');
        generator.document.write('<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> \n');
        generator.document.write('<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml">\n');
        generator.document.write('<head id="Head1">\n');
        generator.document.write('<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>\n');
        generator.document.write('<title>FedEx Maps Results Page</title>\n');
        generator.document.write('<style type="text/css"> v\\:* {
behavior:url(#default#VML); } </style>\n');
        generator.document.write('<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=1&key=ABQIAAAAWiXPqszmLva5aq2c...">\n');
        generator.document.write('</script >\n');
        generator.document.write('<script type="text/javascript" >\n');
        generator.document.write('function onLoad()\n');
        generator.document.write('{\n');
        generator.document.write('alert ("DUDE");\n');
        generator.document.write('}\n');
        generator.document.write('</script >\n');
        generator.document.write('</head>\n');
        generator.document.write('<body onload="onLoad()">\n');
        generator.document.write('<form id="myForm" runat="server"
action="onLoad()">\n');
        generator.document.write('<div id="map" style="WIDTH: 475px; HEIGHT:
450px"></div>\n');
        generator.document.write('</form>\n');
        generator.document.write('</body>\n');
        generator.document.write('</html>\n');
        generator.document.close();
        }
createMapPopup();
// -->
</script>

Just curious, why don't you just make it easy for yourself and open a
premade page?

In any case it would be better if you posted a link.

as already said why not have it as separate page, as the problem is almost
certainly that the javascript parser is seeing the script tags inside the
code and closing early. For example it probably sees the </script> and
actually stops executing and code and sees a line of code broken in the
middle.

A common way is to do something like:

generator.document.write('</scr'+'ipt >\n');

Barry,

Thanks.  I tried that, and it did not help.

I have already done this is a premade page, and it works fine.  I am
trying to do it via a webservice, so that I can have several different
applications use it with litlle to no reuse of code, including a web
page.  Since I am doing this in a webservice, the syntax to pass back
to the parent web page has been fun to work with (passing back the
entire javascript in a stringbuilder variable to register on the parent
web page).

If I remove the API key line and just run the onLoad script, it works
fine.

I'm wondering if the google maps API does not know where to send the
map info (since it is an unnamed page).

Thanks again,

Bruce

One problem is that "<script" and "</script" are magic words inside
Javascript literal strings. I think the Javascript interpreter is
required to treat them as active tags and assume that you've made an
error that failed to close a previous string.

The Google API loader gets round this situation by doing this:

document.write('<' + 'script src="' + src + '"' +
               ' type="text/javascript"><' + '/script>');
