I guess I am a few little steps away from my solution :)
I try to make a request on mapquestapi.com with the parameters lon and lat
of my Position.....
// GET POS_DATA
var poiRequestURL =
'http://open.mapquestapi.com/nominatim/v1/reverse?format=json&json_callback=renderExampleThreeResults';
poiRequestURL += "&lat=" + lat + "&lon=" + lon;
searchType = 'latlong';
if I call the URL with the parameters manually over a webBrowser (firefox) I
receive a file called reverse with all informations like Road, City, Country
etc. in json format
but HOW I CAN FIRE THE URL request through my JavaScript and after I fired
it up, I need to handle the response.........
to handle the response I thought about the function...
function Results(response) {
var jsonObj;
if(response){
//JSON Objekt
jsonObj = new OpenLayers.Format.JSON();
var result = jsonObj.read(response[obj]);
alert("Street:"+result.address.road+" City:"+result.address.city);
can anyone help please?!?
