Resize my Google Map API
- by Jeremy Flaugher
I am new to JS, and have found the answer to a previous question, which brought up a new question, which brought me here again.
I have a Reveal Modal that contains a Google Map API. When a button is clicked, the Reveal Modal pops up, and displays the Google Map. My problem is that only a third of the map is displaying. This is because a resize trigger needs to be implemented. My question is how do I implement the google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize')? Where do I place this little snippet of code?
The Reveal Model script:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#myModal1').click(function() {
$('#myModal').reveal();
});
});
</script>
My Google Map Script:
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {
var mapOptions = {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(39.739318, -89.266507),
zoom: 5,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
mapOptions);
}
</script>
The div which holds the Google Map:
<div id="myModal" class="reveal-modal large">
<h2>How to get here</h2>
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:600px; height:300px;"></div>
<a class="close-reveal-modal">×</a>
</div>
