I've been working via the google maps API tutorial, I've got my map
working with encoded polylines and it is all working great.


The last thing I want to add to my map is a search box (geocoding
search box) so that one can find out which sky train or subway station
is closest to their destination.

I just would like a search box that puts the marker on the map...

I have tried to paste into my code the geocoding codes, but I just
dont know enough to place it properly...or if I have a bracket out of
place or what.

This is the code I "think" is what I need:

var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
var geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();

function showAddress(address) {
  geocoder.getLatLng(
    address,
    function(point) {
      if (!point) {
        alert(address + " not found");
      } else {
        map.setCenter(point, 13);
        var marker = new GMarker(point);
        map.addOverlay(marker);
        marker.openInfoWindowHtml(address);

Here is a link to a page where I have my map loaded (I have not
inserted the code as I dont have a clue where to put it):

Here is the link to my XML. file where I pull the polyline data etc...
if you need to review it:

If one of you gurus would be kind enough to tell me or show me or
anything where to put the code for the geocodeing (if I have even got
the right code).

Thanks so much !!
