I'm new at this, but I have a Google V3 map that loads from the user's W3C
browser geocode info, and I pull country, state, and city from the geocode
object and update input boxes. If the user enters a street address, I want
to geocode it via Google and change map.setCenter and setZoom, and display
the updated map. When that works, I want to add a marker and infowindow.
Despite hours of research and trials, I can't get the geocode and update to
work. The Developer Tool in Chrome seems to indicate that execution
ceases/fails at the geocoder.geocode line that is indicated in bold below.
This is a localhost development, but here's relevant code.
var map, geocoder, marker, infowindow; //global variables
function initializeMap() {
// Try W3C Geolocation to geolocate desktop user
//initialize Google map, geolocate desktop user, and display after page loads
//find country, state, and city for the user's location - this all works
}
window.onload = initializeMap;
//change the Google Map after a user enters a street address
$("#streetAddress").blur(function() {
//if state, city and street address locations are present
if ( $(this).val().length > 0 && $("#state").val().length > 0 &&
$("#city3").val().length > 0 ) {
var gAddress = [$(this).val() + ", " + $("#city3").val() + ", " +
$("#state").val()] ;
//get coordinates of this address
//if no geocode object exists, create one
if (!geocoder) {
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder(); //create Geocoder object else use
existing one from initializeMap() ?
}
//create a GeocoderRequest object with user's street address
var geoCoderRequest = {address: gAddress}
//make a Geocoder request
geocoder.geocode( geoCoderRequest, function(results, status) { *//this
line fails*
//check if status is OK
if ( status === google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
//update center of existing map on location returned for this
address
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
map.setZoom(14);
}
});
} else {
return; //no action if gAddress is incomplete
}
});
