Hi all, I am new to Maps API v3 and I am experimenting with a few things. I am trying to draw all states and later counties os the USA. I started with the examples here (http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/ javascript/overlays.html#PolylineArrays) and have put together a quick test page of my own here (www.lucaswall.com/MapOverlaysStates01.html).
As you can see in the source code, I have hard coded all LatLng info in the page. I used the dat files the census bureau posted here (http://www.census.gov/geo/www/cob/co2000.html) I am familiar with vbscript and how to open a txt file and parse through it. I imagine javascript should work similarly??? I am not familiar with it but I am looking for a js solution because Google Maps API v3 uses it. Question 1: Can I use javascript to call a file from the server that gives all LatLng points to the script? How would that script look like? Which instructions? Any examples of similar things online? Question 2: Should I use XML and PHP instead to do such thing because javascript is not appropriate?
