I have been working with this for quiet some time now. I am now able to access values from Javascript within AS. But there are a couple of problems I am facing:
First, I am unable center the map on the user's location when the map is first opened. It works perfectly in an HTML file but doesn't work within StageWebView.
Second, I have also added the search UI which works wonders in html but not in StageWebView. I get hints of the typed string, but doesn't work when a location is selected.
What can I do to make it work?
Here is the html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html, body
{
height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0;
}
#map
{
height: 100%;
}
.controls
{
margin-top: 10px;
border: 1px solid transparent;
border-radius: 2px 0 0 2px;
box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
height: 32px;
outline: none;
box-shadow: 0 2px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
}

}

}

}
#target {

}
</style>

I can't write the entire application in JS or JAVA because , one, I have come way too far, I have written more than 15k lines of code spread across 65 classes, second, I don't really know JS or Java.
