I am trying to use both Geolocation and Places from the google maps API to display a map (at my location) with the nearest places around me. The two examples work seperately but not together.
Can anyone tell me why there is a problem with this? am I overwriting the map with another or doing something else wrong?
<script type="text/javascript"

<script>
var map;
var service;
var marker;
var pos;
function initialize() {
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 15
};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'),
mapOptions);
// Try HTML5 geolocation
if(navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
pos = new google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,
position.coords.longitude);
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
map: map,
position: pos,
content: 'Located'
});
map.setCenter(pos);
}, function() {
handleNoGeolocation(true);
});
} else {
// Browser doesn't support Geolocation
handleNoGeolocation(false);
}
var request = {
location:pos,
radius:500,
types: ['store']
};
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
service.nearbySearch(request,callback);
function callback(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.places.PlacesServiceStatus.OK) {
for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
createMarker(results[i]);
}
}
}
}
function createMarker(place) {
var placeLoc = place.geometry.location;
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: place.geometry.location
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(place.name);
infowindow.open(map, this);
});
}
function handleNoGeolocation(errorFlag) {
if (errorFlag) {
var content = 'Error: The Geolocation service failed.';
} else {
var content = 'Error: Your browser doesn\'t support geolocation.';
}
var options = {
map: map,
position: new google.maps.LatLng(60, 105),
content: content
};
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow(options);
map.setCenter(options.position);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>
EDIT
Moved the code now so it looks like - Has not fixed the problem of location being undefined.
if(navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
var request = {
location:pos,
radius:500,
types: ['store']
};
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
service.nearbySearch(request,callback);
pos = new google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,
position.coords.longitude);
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
map: map,
position: pos,
content: 'Located'
});
map.setCenter(pos);
}, function() {
handleNoGeolocation(true);
});'
