That is not "the" alternative. There is no alternative to posting a link. You can make a simple page that exhibits the problem and post it on a free host. You may even find your problem and fix it when doing that... The other option is to search the group for examples of what you are trying to do, compare what works with what you are doing. I don't really look at posted code (my browser is a lot better at detecting javascript errors than my brain is, and that is usually the problem). -- Larry > > Here it is again > > <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" > "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> > <html> > <head> > <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> > <title>Google Maps</title> > <script > src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&key=<http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&key=ABQIAAAAftdhw2m_...>" > type="text/javascript"></script> > </head> > <body onunload="GUnload()"> > > <form name="billgoat" action="google_map_test_action.cfm" method="post"> > <input type="hidden" name="lat" value="38.93714" id="click_lat" > onclick="this.blur()"> > <input type="hidden" name="long" value="-97.20632" id="click_long" > onclick="this.blur()"> > <input type="submit" name="Save"> > </form> > <div id="map" style="width: 400px; height: 300px"></div> > <script type="text/javascript"> > //<![CDATA[ > > var map = new GMap(document.getElementById("map")); > map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl()); > > // center and zoom to the lat/long in the form > map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint( > document.getElementById('click_long').value, > document.getElementById('click_lat').value), 12); > > GEvent.addListener(map, 'click', > function(overlay, point) { > if (point) { > document.getElementById('click_lat').value = point.y; > document.getElementById('click_long').value = point.x; > } > } > ); > //]]> > </script> > > </body> > </html> > > On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 9:08 AM, [email protected] > <[email protected]>wrote: > > > > > On Dec 9, 7:26 am, aidema <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Ok I decided to go with this.... > > > snip... > > > > However, I still need two very important features. 1 - When the user > > > clicks I want to display a pinpoint. 2 - If the user clicks again I > > > want to take away the initial pinpoint and add one where the new click > > > was. > > > > Any advice/assistance is greatly appreciated. > > > I may have missed the link to your map in all the code you posted. > > The best advice is to read and follow the posting guidelines (post a > > link, not code). > > > -- Larry > > > > Thanks!!!! > > > > On Dec 9, 8:13 am, aidema <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Mike, > > > > > Your tutorial is good but it looks like it stores the data to a file > > > > on the server. > > > > > When the user clicks a pinpoint and then enters details into the popup > > > > ballopn and presses submit, I want the form to process and navigate to > > > > another page. > > > > > Currently this is not working for me. > > > > > <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" " > >http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> > > > > <html> > > > > <head> > > > > <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/ > > > > > <title>Google Maps</title> > > > > <script src="http://maps.google.com/maps?
