Hi all, Thanks again for your help thus far. I've got... something, but I could use a little troubleshooting help.
I've decided to read the XML and find the line of XML with the matching venue name within PHP. Then I echo the Javascript for the map, including $venuexml. So far, so good. However, my all-venues map ( http://www.stillepost.ca/calendar/venues/montreal.php ) was read from an external XML file, and now I need the map JS to read XML from a string. I tried adapting the first script, but I'm not sure what to chop. I removed the sidebar and the GDownloadUrl loop... I've Googled around but can't seem to fix my problem. If you're so inclined, I'd appreciate any help. Here's an example event: http://stillepost.ca/calendar/montreal/view_entry2.php?id=1857 In this example, here's the string I'm passing to the Javascript, using GXml.parse (?) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><markers><marker><venuename><! [CDATA[ Friendship Cove ]]></venuename><infowindow><![CDATA[ <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/garbagebox/3537262804/"; title="Complications by them boxes, on Flickr"><img style="float:left;padding:2px;border:4px double #999;margin-right: 12px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/ 3107/3537262804_d37e681744.jpg" width="90" height="67" alt="Complications" /></a><strong><a href="http://www.myspace.com/ friendshipcove">Friendship Cove</a></strong><br />215a rue Murray<br /> (514) 933-5518 ]]></infowindow><location lat="45.492710" lng="-73.559486" /></marker> </markers> (Note that I've made $venuexml a single specific venue, "Friendship Cove", just for simplicity, because I haven't dealt with the accented characters problem yet. The venue being mapped won't match the one in the event listing, while I test.) The div appears (in fact it appears twice, why I do not know) but not the map or the markers. Two other, less important questions: - Why do my info windows (which you can see on the all-venues map) wrap text rather than expanding? How should I tell the script to size the info window's width to its content? (I'd prefer not to set a static width if possible.) - How can I add a link from the event map Thanks so much again. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
