<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
var localSearch;
var map;
var icon;
var addressMarkerOptions;
google.load("search", "1");
google.load("maps", "2");
google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);
function initialize()
{
localSearch = new GlocalSearch();
icon = new GIcon(G_DEFAULT_ICON);
addressMarkerOptions = { icon:icon , draggable: false};
map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map"));
map.addControl(new GLargeMapControl());
map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
plotAddress("OX4 1FJ");
}
/**
* This takes either a postcode or an address string
*
*/
function plotAddress(address)
{
localSearch.setSearchCompleteCallback(null,
function() {
if (localSearch.results[0])
{
var resultLat = localSearch.results[0].lat;
var resultLng = localSearch.results[0].lng;
var point = new GLatLng(resultLat,resultLng);
var marker = new GMarker(point, addressMarkerOptions);
map.addOverlay(marker);
map.setCenter(point, 5, G_NORMAL_MAP);
}
else
{
alert('address not found');
}
});
localSearch.execute(address + ", UK");
}
</script>
It slots into the code below:
<div id="map">Loading...</div>
