Simple question: Getting just latitude or just longitude from latLng

[Aaron]

Hi there,

I've got a little function that sends latLng data to a textbox. It is currently in the format: (51.519934101320175, -0.11481629101562918)

What I would like is to split out the latitude and longitude so that one text box gets latitude and the other gets longitude but I don't know how to retrieve just the latitude data from latLng.

I've had a look at:

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/reference.html#LatLng

I've also tried variations of latLng.latitude and so on but no luck. Any ideas would be appreciated.

And has these documented methods:
lat() number Returns the latitude in degrees.
lng() number Returns the longitude in degrees.

Did you try them?

Try the documentation again. It suggests xxx.lat() where xxx is
whatever variable holds your latLng object.

Hi,

thank you for your responses. I did try lat and lng() but called them incorrectly. 

Thanks again for the tips :)

You variable is a instance of latlng? i think that you don't have this instance. Also look if the object was created... 

I suggest to use a tool like firebug to check...
