Hi
I can't get the pointer in the right place for one of my maps. I am
using addresses rather than co-ordinates - I wonder if this might be
the problem?
The address is 108 Stamford Street, Lambeth, London SE1 9NH - when
this is typed into maps.google.co.uk the marker is spot on.
Here's some of the code I use:
"address" is an array of addresses and "fred" is the index which
points to the address I need to show
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
var geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
function showAddress(address, fred) {
geocoder.getLatLng(
address[fred],
function(point) {
if (!point) {
// do nothing
} else {
// set scale factor
if (address.length==1){
map.setCenter(point, 16);
}else{
map.setCenter(point, 17);
}
var marker = new GMarker(point);
map.addOverlay(marker);
:
:
The point shows up ok, but its about 200m off where it should be.
Would I be better of now going over and re-writing the page so that it
uses the co-ordinates generated by maps.google.co.uk
Or is there something else that I am doing wrong!
Thanks very much
