First of all, the Google Maps API is a Javascript API, not Java. Your best bet is to start looking at the simple examples in Mike Williams' tutorials; http://econym.org.uk/gmap/
View the source code of his examples to see how the language and the API work. Consult a Javascript primer - book/web - or get advise from a Javascript programmer if you do not understand the Javascript. Read the official documentation: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/index.html and look at the Code Samples in the left sidebar. Decide on a design for a _simple_ page get a Map API key and try building it, borrowing bits of code from the above examples as necessary. Start simple. If you run into problems post a query onto this discussion group. Make sure you post a link to your test page, NOT code (read the Suggested Posting Guidelines: http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/web/suggested-posting-guidelines ) You will get help from the experts in the discussion group if you follow the guidelines - but please remember, you will get advise, but we will not write the web application for you ;-) Happy hacking! igloo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
