Disregard my previous email....I do know that function..obviously!!! lol
function searchLocationsNear(center) {
var radius = document.getElementById('radiusSelect').value;
var searchUrl = 'phpsqlsearch_genxml.php?lat=' + center.lat() + '&lng='
+ center.lng() + '&radius=' + radius;
//var searchUrl = '
http://localhost/store_locater/phpsqlsearch_genxml.php?lat=40.146673&lng=-86.503885&radius=200
';
GDownloadUrl(searchUrl, function(data) {
var xml = GXml.parse(data);
var markers = xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName('marker');
map.clearOverlays();
var sidebar = document.getElementById('sidebar');
sidebar.innerHTML = '';
if (markers.length == 0) {
sidebar.innerHTML = 'No results found.';
map.setCenter(new GLatLng(40, -86), 4);
return;
}
I put fake Lat/Lngs in there....anyway, it's possible your function got
messed up while you were trying to debug all the varying factors. Try
something based on the above. It's straight Google API stuff v2
