Dear Xelawho,
I tried to follow part of your codes like this and I
have added this map.addControl(new search_control()); in my init function.
Then I get an error here
document.getElementById('map').appendChild(contents); saying my map is null?
function search_control()
{
}
new search_control();
search_control.prototype.initialize = function() {
var contents = document.createElement("div");
contents.style.width="300px";
contents.style.height="25px";
contents.innerHTML="<div id='auto'
style='z-index:100'><input type='text'
style='font-family:verdana;width:200px; height:18px;font-size:12px'
id='autocomplete' autocomplete='off' onKeyPress='return
submitenter(this,event)'/><input type=\"button\"
onclick=\"searchLocations()\" value=\"Search\"/><\/div>";
document.getElementById('map').appendChild(contents);
return contents;
}
new search_control().initialize();
document.getElementById("auto").style.top="5px";
document.getElementById("auto").style.left="5px";
