Elastic Drag/Drop of Polylines with Driving Directions.

2008-09-08T10:15:24Z

I'm pretty new to Javascript, and the Maps API, I was wondering if
anyone can point me in the direction of a reasonably simple example of
how to make the driving directions polylines draggable with the
elastic behaviour exhibited in Google Maps.

Any help appreciated, thanks in advance.

parse KML into the sidebar like maps.google.com

2008-09-08T08:00:09Z

Hi, any news regarding this? EGeoXML and GeoXML are amazing - thank
you, Mike and Dyas -, but the parser used by maps.google.com is
somewhat more complete.
When I use KML files to feed my map app, I do this because of the
complexity of data. My KMLs normally have structures of folders,
controlled by specific properties. While maps.google.com parses it

v2.127d pushed as v2.x, 1 feature request fulfilled

2008-09-08T06:23:41Z

Hey folks-

We just pushed v2.127d as v2.x, and v2.126d as v2. Unfortunately, we
don't have the version aliasing setup with the new lettering release
system, so developers need to explicit request 2.127d/2.126d (if they
are explicitly requesting those versions).

The one feature request fulfilled is access to

Loading 100,000 points on the map

2008-09-08T03:38:01Z

Hi,

I have to display about 100,000 items (and increasing) on a map. I am
using Marker Manager to combine the markers on different zoom levels
and also feeding the data in from an external XML file.

Do I have to load all the 100,000 items in the XML at the time of the
load of the map or can I make the XML dynamic based on the bounds of

My LinearRing is on drugs

2008-09-08T03:18:38Z

Okay... so I constructed some KMLs a few weeks ago that included
LinearRings with inner and outer boundaries. They used to work
perfectly when I placed them in Google Maps. Now, however, they fill
the innerBoundary at high zoom levels, fill the area between the outer
and inner boundaries at low zoom levels, and do some weird

Directions question...

2008-09-08T02:47:47Z

Ive just begun to add directions to my map. When I compare the route
the my map has vs. the route that google maps produces they are
different.

I read in other posts about GDirectionsOptions and Ive seen examples
for travelMode, avoidHighways and locale. Are these the only
options(besides the to/from addresses) I can pass into the

MarkerManger Zoomlevel problem

2008-09-08T02:47:22Z

Hi,

This is probably child's play for some of you guys, so please be
patient with me.

I'm trying to develop a Google Map for my travel site. Generally, not
a problem:

[link]

But obviously that map is too cluttered and I'm trying to use the
Clustering example with the markermanager.js to get some more sense

Google Maps API message

I have been setting up Google maps on a series of websites and on most
of them the maps work perfectly. On 4 of them when I type in the URL
for some reason I get the message "The Google Maps API key used on
this web site was registered for a different web site. You can
generate a new key for this web site at [link]."

Creating Google Maps API without latitude and longitude info

2008-09-08T01:33:37Z

hi,

I am successfully able to show google maps on my site but I would be
interested to know whether it is possible to show google maps API
without latitude and longitude information.

All what I have is the address of the location. I have the city, state
and street name.

My question is. Is this possible? If yes, how should I do it?

How to programmatically trigger click event on a marker based on pixel position

2008-09-08T01:13:58Z

Hi,

I would like to programmatically trigger a click event on my map that
would fire an event when over a marker. Basically reproduce what
happens when you actually click with your mouse over a marker, but
just based on the pixel position in the div.

Or maybe if I could figure out if a given position has a marker

Retrieving PoV values from Street View

2008-09-08T00:34:26Z

Hi all,

We have a product locator application that need the PoV values to be
exact. Seeing that we can't rely on the GeoCoder to return proper
values every time (seeing the addresses can lack enough information).

To overcome this we have decided to build a management application to
maintain our data, including Street View PoV. We are hoping our sales

My markers are not on the correct location

2008-09-07T22:15:22Z

Hey,

I'm new at this google maps thing, but i have a working setup on my
website. What i have done is taken to heart the whole tutorial on
setting up a mySQL database, and using PHP to create a store locator
that will display data in the database on the google map, based on the
city searched for and the radius in miles selected.
