GeocoderRequest does not exist?

[smgfan]

i am trying to pass an argument to the geocode method of the geocoder, which is obviously supposed to be a "GeocoderRequest"

problem is - there is no GeocoderRequest, as revealed through inspecting the DOM of google.maps with firebug.

and since it also does not accept a simple string as argument, how is one supposed to call this?

I'm having trouble following the antecedant of "which" in your
question. Did you compare your code to one of the examples?
http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/geocoding.html

The geocoder is an Instance of google.maps.Geocoder(), so you can name
it whatever you want. That Instance has a method named "geocode,"
which takes several arguments. One of the arguments is often called a
GeocodeRequest, but it is just an object literal composed of several
parts. You could create that literal and assign it to a javascript
variable (giving it whatever name you want), but most of the Google
examples just insert the literal into the method call.
