Hey,
I am at the stage of a nervous breakdown with google maps at the
moment.
I have spent a solid 4 months trying to do ONE thing and i cant do it.
Its way waaay to complex for me.
I have my google maps all setup and the xml is pulling out the
information intended.
I now need that information to be displayed in a similiar way that
google maps displays its marker info window information.
PLEASE dont point me towards the econym tutorials because i've read
them solidly.
I just need a simple solution.
I hardly understand javascript as it is. And i dont have time to
learn. So most of my work has been trial and error and/or copy and
paste with some modifications.
How do i format the information that is displayed?
I currently have this:
// SET UP MARKER POSITIONS
function createMarker(point, description) {
var marker = new GMarker(point);
GEvent.addListener(marker, "click", function() {
marker.openInfoWindowHtml(description);
});
return marker;
}
var request = GXmlHttp.create();
request.open("GET", "g_maps_xml.ashx", true);
request.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (request.readyState == 4) {
var xmlDoc = request.responseXML;
var descriptions =
xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("description");
var parks =
xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("park");
var points =
xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("point");
for (var i = 0; i < parks.length; i++) {
var point = new GLatLng(parseFloat(points
[i].getAttribute("lat")), parseFloat(points[i].getAttribute("lng")));
var marker = createMarker(point,
descriptions[i]);
map.addOverlay(marker);
}
}
}
---------------------------------------------
Inside description is <name><address1><address2><website><number>
nodes.
So a marker will have each instance of description outputted. and it
needs to be formatted properly to look nice.
I apologise for the bluntness and frustration of this post but I am in
a serious situation now and i cannot cope.
Thankyou for reading over.
