Make geocoding map zoom on scroll - google-maps

I am looking at two different geocode examples I found and I am looking to get the best of both features. I have not had much experience with geocoding and I find the google docs hard to follow
This one does everything I want except scroll in when the user uses the mouse wheel. http://jsfiddle.net/Ep7Rr/
I would like this one if I could get the marker to move as the user drags the map like in the first one.http://jsfiddle.net/AjeTc/
I know there are different ways such as new GMap2 and new google.maps.Geocoder
The first one works with this code
<script>
function load() {
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()){
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map"));
map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl());
map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
var center = new GLatLng(54.18173, -6.35284);
map.setCenter(center, 15);
geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
var marker = new GMarker(center, {draggable: true});
map.addOverlay(marker);
document.getElementById("lat").innerHTML = center.lat().toFixed(5);
document.getElementById("lng").innerHTML = center.lng().toFixed(5);
GEvent.addListener(marker, "dragend", function(){
var point = marker.getPoint();
map.panTo(point);
document.getElementById("lat").innerHTML = point.lat().toFixed(5);
document.getElementById("lng").innerHTML = point.lng().toFixed(5);
}); /*END GEvent.addListener(marker, "dragend", function(){*/
GEvent.addListener(map, "moveend", function() {
map.clearOverlays();
var center = map.getCenter();
var marker = new GMarker(center, {draggable: true});
map.addOverlay(marker);
document.getElementById("lat").innerHTML = center.lat().toFixed(5);
document.getElementById("lng").innerHTML = center.lng().toFixed(5);
GEvent.addListener(marker, "dragend", function() {
var point =marker.getPoint();
map.panTo(point);
document.getElementById("lat").innerHTML = point.lat().toFixed(5);
document.getElementById("lng").innerHTML = point.lng().toFixed(5);
}); /*END GEvent.addListener(marker, "dragend", function() {*/
}); /*END GEvent.addListener(map, "moveend", function() {*/
} /*END if (GBrowserIsCompatible()){*/
} /*END function load*/
And the second uses this
<script type="text/javascript">
function showAddress() {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map"));
var address = document.getElementById('fullAddress').value;
return false;
} /*END function showAddress*/
var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
function geocodePosition(pos) {
geocoder.geocode({
latLng: pos
}, function(responses) {
if (responses && responses.length > 0) {
updateMarkerAddress(responses[0].formatted_address);
} else {
updateMarkerAddress('Cannot determine address at this location.');
}
});
}
function updateMarkerStatus(str) {
document.getElementById('markerStatus').innerHTML = str;
}
function updateMarkerPosition(latLng) {
document.getElementById('info').innerHTML = [
latLng.lat(),
latLng.lng()
].join(', ');
}
function updateMarkerAddress(str) {
document.getElementById('address').innerHTML = str;
}
function initialize() {
var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(54.18173, -6.35284);
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('mapCanvas'), {
zoom: 8,
center: latLng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latLng,
title: 'Point A',
map: map,
draggable: true
});
// Update current position info.
updateMarkerPosition(latLng);
geocodePosition(latLng);
// Add dragging event listeners.
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'dragstart', function() {
updateMarkerAddress('Dragging...');
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'drag', function() {
updateMarkerStatus('Dragging...');
updateMarkerPosition(marker.getPosition());
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'dragend', function() {
updateMarkerStatus('Drag ended');
geocodePosition(marker.getPosition());
});
}
// Onload handler to fire off the app.
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>

Catch the event when the map is dragged.
Update the position of the marker by getting the map center
Geocode the position of the marker
google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'dragend', function() {
updateMarkerStatus('Drag ended');
marker.setPosition(map.getCenter());
geocodePosition(marker.getPosition());
});

Google API to map nearby properties in Salesforce

I asked this question originally in the Salesforce StackExchange, but was redirected here, since it's more of a Google API question than a Salesforce question.
Right now I have the following code, which creates a marker at the location of the property on a visualforce page that has an embedded Google Map. When the user clicks on the marker, an info window appears with information on the property.
<apex:page standardController="Property__c">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>

var myOptions = {
zoom: 18,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID,
mapTypeControl: true,
scrollwheel: false
}
var map;
var marker;
var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var address = "{!Property__c.Property_Address__c}, " + "{!Property__c.City__c}, " + "{!Property__c.State__c} " + "{!Property__c.Zip_Postal_Code__c}}";
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "<b>{!Property__c.Name}</b><br>{!Property__c.Property_Address__c}<br>{!Property__c.City__c}, {!Property__c.State__c} {!Property__c.Zip_Postal_Code__c}"
});
geocoder.geocode({
address: address
}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK && results.length) {
if (status != google.maps.GeocoderStatus.ZERO_RESULTS) {
//create map
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), myOptions);
map.setTilt(45);
//center map
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
//create marker

}
} else {
$('#map').css({

});
$('#map').html("Oops! {!Property__c.Name}'s billing address could not be found, please make sure the address is correct.");
resizeIframe();
}

function resizeIframe() {
var me = window.name;
if (me) {
var iframes = parent.document.getElementsByName(me);

This is working just fine. But I am trying to modify it to also show properties nearby to this property. I have gotten as far as using an SOQL query to find these properties, pass their addresses into an array, geocode these addresses and set a marker at each geocoordinate. All of that works just swell.
Where I've been stuck, is in displaying the infowindow that appears when the user clicks one of these markers. Not only can I not create an infowindow for the NEW markers, but the infowindow for the OLD "main" marker is breaking as well. In fact, even if I comment the infowindow and listener events for the new markers, the original is still broken. These infowindows need to display different information than the infowindow for the "main" marker. Here is my modified code:
$(document).ready(function() {
var myOptions = {
zoom: 18,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID,
mapTypeControl: true,
scrollwheel: false
}
var map;
var marker;
var marker2;
var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var address = "{!Property__c.Property_Address__c}, " + "{!Property__c.City__c}, " + "{!Property__c.State__c} " + "{!Property__c.Zip_Postal_Code__c}}";
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "<b>{!Property__c.Name}</b><br>{!Property__c.Property_Address__c}<br>{!Property__c.City__c}, {!Property__c.State__c} {!Property__c.Zip_Postal_Code__c}"
});
geocoder.geocode({
address: address
}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK && results.length) {
if (status != google.maps.GeocoderStatus.ZERO_RESULTS) {
//create map
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), myOptions);
map.setTilt(45);
//center map
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
//create marker
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: results[0].geometry.location,
map: map,
title: "{!Property__c.Name}"
});
//add listeners
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'closeclick', function() {
map.setCenter(marker.getPosition());
});
//several markers
//Get Geos
var geos = [];
var idy = 0; <
apex: repeat value = "{!getgeoList}"
var = "m" >
geos[idy++] = "{!m}"; <
/apex:repeat>
for (var i = 0; i < geos.length; ++i) {
console.log('geo' + geos[i] + 'out of' + geos.length);
geocodeAddress(geos[i]);
}
function geocodeAddress(location) {
geocoder.geocode({
'address': location
}, function(results, status) {
// alert(status);
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
// alert(results[0].geometry.location+location);
createMarker(results[0].geometry.location, location);
} else {
alert("some problem in geocode" + status);
}
});
}
function createMarker(latlng, html) {
marker2 = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latlng,
map: map
});
addIinfo(marker2, html);
}
function addInfo(marker2, html) {
var infowindow2 = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: html
});
marker2.addListener(marker2, 'click', function() {
infowindow2.open(marker2.get('map'), marker2);
});
}
}
} else {
$('#map').css({
'height': '15px'
});
$('#map').html("Oops! {!Property__c.Name}'s billing address could not be found, please make sure the address is correct.");
resizeIframe();
}
});
function resizeIframe() {
var me = window.name;
if (me) {
var iframes = parent.document.getElementsByName(me);
if (iframes && iframes.length == 1) {
height = document.body.offsetHeight;
iframes[0].style.height = height + "px";
}
}
}
});
I changed marker2.addListener to google.maps.event.addListener. This worked, except that my original marker was showing the same information as the marker2 markers. When I changed the marker2 icon to blue, I realized that this was because it was putting a marker2 marker over the original marker. So I changed i = 0 to i=1 in my for loop, and now my code works just great! :)
Here is my new code:
$(document).ready(function() {
var myOptions = {

var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "<b>{!Property__c.Name}</b><br>{!Property__c.Property_Address__c}<br>{!Property__c.City__c}, {!Property__c.State__c} {!Property__c.Zip_Postal_Code__c}"

The map will only be created when $cordovaGeolocation.getCurrentPosition was successfull, but you also call loadMarkers when it wasn't successfull(map is null in this case)
Solution: create the map outside of the getCurrentPosition-callbacks (with a default-value for center).
In the success-callback create the marker and set the center of the map
function initMap() {
var options = { timeout: 10000, enableHighAccuracy: true },
mapOptions = {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(-37.92,151.25),

Google Maps 2 InfoWindows Auto-Opening infoWindow, 1 infoWindow after click

I have an auto-opening infoWindow.
I wish only two were opened automatically, while one did not. The effect Just like in the pictures.
My Code:
<script>
function initialize() {
var openedInfoWindow = [];
var locations = [
['Oddział', 52.846190, 17.723237, 3],
['Oddział', 52.812224, 17.201023, 2],

];
var cityCircle;
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), {
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
zoomControl: true,
zoomControlOptions: {
style: google.maps.ZoomControlStyle.SMALL
}
});
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
for (i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locations[i][1], locations[i][2], locations[i][3]),
map: map,
content: locations[i][0]
});
bounds.extend(marker.position);
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i, infowindow) {
return function () {
if(openedInfoWindow[i] != null){
openedInfoWindow[i].close();
openedInfoWindow[i] = null;
}else{
infowindow.setContent(this.content);
infowindow.open(map, this);
openedInfoWindow[i] = infowindow;
google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'closeclick', function() {
openedInfoWindow[i] = null;
});
}
}
})(marker, i, infowindow));
google.maps.event.trigger(marker, 'click');
}
map.fitBounds(bounds);
var listener = google.maps.event.addListener(map, "idle", function () {
map.setZoom(9);
google.maps.event.removeListener(listener);

}
window.onload = loadScript;
</script>`
Picture 1 = so now
Picture 2 = so it has to be
I would suggest you generalize it, add a member to your array to determine whether to open the marker or not.
var locations = [
// IW content, lat, lng, nowrap, open IW
['Oddział', 52.846190, 17.723237, 3, true],
['Oddział', 52.812224, 17.201023, 2, true],
['Zakład Poligraficzny - Siedziba', 52.847942, 17.757889, 1, false]
];
Then do this to open the infowindow:
if (locations[i][4]) {
google.maps.event.trigger(marker, 'click');
}

Search box on Google Maps API

I am trying to put a search box onto my map, but it keeps failing. I have tried to use sample code from a few sites (here: How to add Google Maps Autocomplete search box?; here: How to integrate SearchBox in Google Maps JavaScript API v3?; here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-searchbox; and a tutorial from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSdM3yZkj1w). But I can't seem to make it work, and now my map won't even display.
To explain fully, I am trying to make a map that displays a kml (which can be toggled), a marker that can be dragged by the user (which displays co-ordinates where ever the marker is), and a search box to search for an address or co-ordinates (...this is still eluding me).
In the end, I am hoping to move the search box and the kml toggle onto the map, rather than outside.
I'm very new to this, so I apologise in advance for my lack of experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Marker Drag Click Event Google Maps

I have a google maps and a marker that locates my position , it's a draggable marker with an infowindow.
Here is my code
var marker;
var infowindowPhoto;
var latPosition;
var longPosition;
var newLocationLat;
var newLocationLong;
function initializeMarker()
{
if(navigator.geolocation)
{
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position)
{
var pos = new google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,position.coords.longitude);
latPosition = position.coords.latitude;
longPosition = position.coords.longitude;
//alert("Latitude:"+latPosition);
//alert("Longitude:"+longPosition);
marker = new google.maps.Marker
({
position: pos,
draggable:true,
animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP,
map: map
});
markersArray.push(marker);
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function (event)
{
infowindowPhoto.open(map,marker);
document.getElementById("latbox").value = this.getPosition().lat();
document.getElementById("lngbox").value = this.getPosition().lng();
latPosition = this.getPosition().lat();
longPosition = this.getPosition().lng();
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker,'dragend', function (event)
{
infowindowPhoto.open(map,marker);
document.getElementById("latbox").value = this.getPosition().lat();
document.getElementById("lngbox").value = this.getPosition().lng();
newLocationLat = this.getPosition().lat();
newLocationLong = this.getPosition().lng();
});
infowindowPhoto.open(map,marker);
map.setCenter(pos);
},
function()
{
handleNoGeolocation(true);
});
}
else
{
handleNoGeolocation(false);
}
contentString ='<h1 id="firstHeading" class="firstHeading">Uluru</h1>';
infowindowPhoto = new google.maps.InfoWindow
({
content: contentString
});
}
function Alert()
{
alert("Latitude:"+latPosition);
alert("Longitude:"+longPosition);
alert("newLatitude:"+newLocationLat);
alert("newLongitude:"+newLocationLong);
}
The marker first is positioned in my location , if i don't drag the marker it show me in the function alert my position. So in the two fist alert in function aloert it shows me my position and the two other alert are undefined.
Now my problem is that i want when i dont move the marker that this function will work
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function (event)
{
infowindowPhoto.open(map,marker);
document.getElementById("latbox").value = this.getPosition().lat();
document.getElementById("lngbox").value = this.getPosition().lng();
latPosition = this.getPosition().lat();
longPosition = this.getPosition().lng();
});
I want when i drag the marker that this function work
google.maps.event.addListener(marker,'dragend', function (event)
{
infowindowPhoto.open(map,marker);
document.getElementById("latbox").value = this.getPosition().lat();
document.getElementById("lngbox").value = this.getPosition().lng();
newLocationLat = this.getPosition().lat();
newLocationLong = this.getPosition().lng();
});
So i can only show only my new position. Thanks for your help
/////////////////////////////////Update///////////////////////////////////
I have this code that show me the new latitude and longitude in an html input:
<div id="latlong">
<p>Latitude: <input size="20" type="text" id="latbox" name="lat" ></p>
<p>Longitude: <input size="20" type="text" id="lngbox" name="lng" ></p>
A few tips:
Avoid unnecessary code when you are having issues with a script. Break it down to the essential.
Always post the necessary code with your question (you have now updated it). Good point.
Avoid duplicating code at different places. Create functions for that.
I now understand you want to show the user location in 2 inputs. I thought you wanted to show it within the infowindow, which is what I did in the below code (but the main idea is the same).
A few notes:
Code within an event listener (click, dragend, etc.) is only executed when the event is fired.
You can use the setContent method of the infowindow when you want to update its content.
Here is the code:
var map;
var marker;
var infowindowPhoto = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var latPosition;
var longPosition;
function initialize() {
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 8,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(10,10)
};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map-canvas"), mapOptions);
initializeMarker();
}
function initializeMarker() {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function (position) {
var pos = new google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude, position.coords.longitude);
latPosition = position.coords.latitude;
longPosition = position.coords.longitude;
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: pos,
draggable: true,
animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP,
map: map
});
map.setCenter(pos);
updatePosition();
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function (event) {
updatePosition();
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'dragend', function (event) {
updatePosition();
});
});
}
}
function updatePosition() {
latPosition = marker.getPosition().lat();
longPosition = marker.getPosition().lng();
contentString = '<div id="iwContent">Lat: <span id="latbox">' + latPosition + '</span><br />Lng: <span id="lngbox">' + longPosition + '</span></div>';
infowindowPhoto.setContent(contentString);
infowindowPhoto.open(map, marker);
}
initialize();
