Can I put google map functions into a closure?
- by Joe
I am trying to write some google map functionlity and playing around with javascript closures with an aim to try organise and structure my code better.
I have the following code:
var gmapFn ={
init : function(){
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
this.mapObj = new GMap2($("#map_canvas"));
this.mapObj.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng(51.512880,-0.134334),16);
}
}
}
Then I call it later in a jquery doc ready:
$(document).ready(function() {
gmapFn.init();
})
I have set up the google map keys and but I get an error on the main.js :
uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_ALL/mapfiles/193c/maps2.api/main.js :: ig :: line 170" data: no]
QO()
THe error seems to be thrown at the GBrowserIsCompatible() test which I beieve is down to me using this closure, is there a way to keep it in an closure and get init() working?
