Hi all, perhaps someone might be kind enough to point me in the right direction? I'm already quite a bit above my depth, but I might be able to muddle through with the correct tutelage.
I'm basically trying to create a very simple store finder for my product which is carried at several chains across the US. If a user enters their zip code I'd like to bring them to a map of that area and show nearby store locations. For example my product is carried in certain chain stores like Walgreens. Is there a way to feed my map a query that says basically "plot all Walgreens and "Sally Beauty Supply" near zipcode whatever"? I've got a simple page up as a starting point (using the code from geocoding-simple example) <a href="http://beautysleepusa.hopewell.tv/ maps.html">here</a> I guess my first question is how can I feed the maps a search query like find "Walgreens" and not just coordinates (which seems to be how all the examples function). THEN, how can I turn those results into overlay markers... but one step at a time... Any help is greatly appreciated, lyndonr -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
