Yes you are using it wrong. In a webpage you should be using the Javacript Maps API [v3] - that includes classes for running directions queries.

The HTTP web services are for server access, not in a webpage.

Hi,
I am using google distance matrix call to retrieve json result, but it seems it is returning an invalid json result because whenever I am trying to print it in console it is giving me "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token : " error. Following result is returning from call but whenever I am trying to print it on console it is giving me error as mentioned below.

{
"destination_addresses" : [ "Naranpura, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India" ],
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token :
"origin_addresses" : [ "Navrangpura, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India" ],
"rows" : [
{
"elements" : [
{
"distance" : {
"text" : "3.5 km",
"value" : 3548
},
"duration" : {
"text" : "7 mins",
"value" : 445
},
"status" : "OK"
}
]
}
],
"status" : "OK"
}

I might be using it in wrong way. Following is my sample code.


var reqUrl = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/json?origins=Navarangpura ahmedabad&destinations=Naranpura ahmedabad&mode=driving&sensor=false&format=json&anything_else=?";
   
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: reqUrl,
        dataType: "jsonp",
        success: function (data) {
            obj = JSON.parse(data);
            console.log(obj);
        }  
    });


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
