direction and walk

[federico ulfo]

There's any way to make a marker walk on a direction route in smooth
way?

I made an application but the marker walk little weird:

Doesn't work at all in IE(6)

It won't work in any version of IE, you have a "hanging comma" (an
extraneous comma) at the end of the options argument for the Map
constructor. IE doesn't like that.

Yea, and your walking isn't appearing to work correctly in Chrome either.  If you look your path cuts across at diagonals at certain points.

Fixed the trailing comma, thanks, but the topic is the same:
"there's any way (may be a function) to make a marker walking on a direction route"?

Nasty hack of Mike Williams' v2 car trip, and some of his v2 epoly
routines translated to v3:

I'm sure with some work it can be made prettier...

that is exactly what I was searching for! Thanks Larry!

Anyway, sounds strange to me that google maps api v3 doesn't have any function for walk the route, with time as parameter.
It could be usefull, or am I wrong?

Why? v2 never had that function. v3 is lighter than v2 and it is
certainly possible to implement it yourself. You can probably do it
more efficiently, elegantly and less convoluted than my demonstrator
with a little effort...

I see, so it doesn't exsists any repository for api maps class extensions and functions, could be an usefull open source project,
like jQuery UI for jQuery, don't you agree?
