I want to show dynamic map location depends upon the drop-down value selected by the user. For an example, if the user selects new york city in the drop-down value means, in google map must show all list of my company location. How can I do this?
In the drop-down you should give the specific map link on of company locations as a value if user select a specific city then it switch according to the given link and show the data on the map.
for example :-
i have search in map shops near me and copy the link
past inside dropdown
In my application I am using fragment tab-host with view pager and I am opening child fragment inside each tab.
Every time I switch tab data get reloaded every time and one of the tab contains Google map, in Google map added markers programmatically but every time I switch tab it doubles the markers on map e.g. if I have added 10 markers for first time after switching once it get 20 and so on.
I have used this code to open child fragment
Used fragment page adapter with view pager
So please tellme how to stop reloading fragment.
This happens because each fragment has a lifecycle (http://developer.android.com/guide/components/fragments.html), and when you switch tab data the fragment is destroyed and another is created.
You are using fragments with view pager and this is controlled by a Parent Activity, so you can move the code to load the map to the Activity, and just use the fragment to display the data stored inside the activity.
You can get the parent activity with this code inside your fragment:
(YourActivity) this.getActivity();
I'm using Drupal 7 with the following modules to show in the user profile their location.
Locaction
Gmap
With these modules, a map views can be built, or the provided location node displays the "bubbles" on the map.
However, I couldn't find out how to display the location map on the user profile node itself.
There are other modules like GMap CCK Field, but this means double entering the location.
Did I miss anything, or is there any other approach?
If you want to display the map view on the user profile node, then you will have to custom code the user profile template file and add the view to the profile page. Then this will be displayed on the website easily.
Another way to do this can be by creating a block which shows the map view and then using Contexts module to display this block only when the user is viewing the profile page. In the view you have to add the relation on "Author" and then you should have the filter criteria to show map of the logged-in user.
With context, you can say that "when user is on profile page X with path "www.xyz.com/user" then display the block Y in region Z."
I was wondering if it were possible to access the names which are displayed on Google Maps and allow you to create events.
For example, would it be possible to make the name "London" (UK) clickable and have a hyperlink to some other page?
Thank you
I was wondering if it were possible to access the names which are displayed on Google Maps and allow you to create events.
No it isn't, they are part of the tiles.
For example, would it be possible to make the name "London" (UK) clickable and have a hyperlink to some other page?
You could however add a click listener to the map, reverse geocode the location of the click and perform some action based on that result.
Is it possible for me to do this: people will input the name of a place in my site's textbox and then upon submission, that place will be placed in the database, have my site's embedded google map updated (display all the original places and the added one) and can be toggled?
Currently, I already had a working code of getting the latitude and longitude of a certain place. Placing that information in the database is also done. I can also generate a KML file from my latlng-database. What I wanted is to have the generated kml used by my website's map to get the necessary points and be toggled whether to be displayed or not and will reflect any added area/place. To be more specific, adding a place is only by KML file, meaning the textbox in the site will be added depending on which KML the user will want to change.
Or is it better to use OpenLayers?
Thanks!
