I want to accomplish such a simple thing but I'm pulling my hair out because it keeps failing. I run a photography website that allows users to upload geotagged photos. If detected, I will then want to display a simple map zoomed in on those coordinates. The map should be next to the image, in the sidebar.
Here's a simple test page: http://ferdy.dnsalias.com/apps/jungledragon/image/3/leaf.html You'll notice that the map is wrongly positioned. No worries, this is just a tech test to see if the map itself is correct. It is, it shows the right coordinates. On the test page, the map canvas div is positioned directly below the body element. This, however, is where it should be in the page hierarchy: html -> body -> wrapper -> content -> aside -> mapcanvas When I place it there, nothing gets rendered. I did figure out that if I set the height of ALL parent elements to 100% it does render in the sidebar. The problem is, I cannot do that, as it breaks all kinds of things in my layout. Why can't I just render the map as a block in the sidebar without having to change the entire layout rules of the site? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
