I would like to create a google map with search box on top like on this side: https://google-developers.appspot.com/... with the JavaScript API v3.
At the moment I use the following code to show a map by getting the latitude and longitude in the url (php get):
<?php
$latitude = $_GET['lat'];
$longitude = $_GET['long'];
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
<style type="text/css">
html { height: 100% }
body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0 }
#map_canvas { height: 100% }
#search-panel {
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -180px;
width: 350px;
z-index: 5;
background-color: #fff;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #999;
}
#target {
width: 345px;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=XXXXXXXXXXX&sensor=true">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {
var input = document.getElementById('searchTextField');
var image = 'pin.png';
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(<?php echo "$latitude" ?>, <?php echo "$longitude" ?>);
var mapOptions = {
center: myLatlng,
zoom: 15,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
streetViewControl: true,
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
mapOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
icon: image,
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP,
title:"You Location"
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="initialize()">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:100%; height:100%"></div>
</body>
</html>
But I don't get it, to integrate the Search Box like on the named site!!!
Can someone help?
I edited the code to this, but I doesn't work!:
<?php
$latitude = $_GET['lat'];
$longitude = $_GET['long'];
?>
