Google Maps JS plugin not loading correctly - javascript

I cannot get the google maps plugin to load correctly
How can I make it so that my contact form actually sends completed forms to my email or collects it in some way? I would eventually like to add a landing page that pops up thanking them for their form submission, (or maybe just add code to change the submit button to say "Thank you!" after clicked), but my first problem is the form has no way to save the info.
Thanks all!!

The problem appears to be that you're missing a developer's API Key.
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#missing-key-map-error
You can get a key here:
Google API Key Docs
FYI - You can see what issues your page has using the Developer Options menu in Chrome, or in Firefox by using the Web Developer Tool from the menu on the right.
As far as collecting information from a form, there are many samples online for saving form data, but they all depend on what development language you are using.

Is it possible to set autofill form data via chrome extension?

I am looking to build a chrome extension wherein I the extension can set the chrome autofill for a person (i.e. save addresses and other information like basic form data). I can then go to a few websites, fill a few forms.
The extension can then set the data for another person and the cycle repeats.
Since the forms can contain dynamic fields, I want this data set in the autofill so chrome can take care of most of the part and I can rectify any problems before submitting the form.
I haven't found a direct chrome extension API to do this. Is this possible to be done?
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: I went through this: Import autofill data from a file into Chrome but is there any way to do it through the extension?

Google review widget for web-application | write google review using google place api

I created a review portal for my customers to give me a review and ratings on my service via different social networking sites.
Currently I am focusing on google review to be collected via a google widget/flow,
This above image is showing the available list of social networking sites to give review. please skip the Facebook i already integrated that.
When the user clicks "google", the google review dialog will be shown on the page to collect the google review.(Image is mentioned bellow)
I would like to avoid people from going away from my website.
I would like to know how to use google.places.reviews.createPublishReviewFlow for writing Google review via Google review widget. I saw this API Widget service has been used by some websites/web applications
I want some documentation/code/sample any thing which is helpful.
You could use http://getreviewlink.com/ to generate a link for your customers to leave reviews at for Google. This only works for Google.
You could use an iframe.
<iframe src="https://www.google.com"></iframe>
You just have to replace the src value by the right one. The only fear that I have about this technique is that you probably want to know when the user posted his review ; but you can't interact with an iframe (with jquery for example) so you'll not be able to know when the user validate the form.

Reverse engineering form submit

I'm using a hosted cart system to manage a ecommerce platform. The system uses form submission to add items to the user's cart. I want to write a javascript library to allow me to add things to the cart with JS, but I will need to see what the platform is submitting so I can copy it appropriately.
Any advice how to best sniff out what the default form info is getting submitted to the form so I can copy it via jquery?
Thanks!
Open your browser's console; Chrome has it built-in, Firefox has Firebug.
The entire request will be viewable in the network tab.
Another, more-complicated option is to set up a trivial local proxy and dump the request.
You can use TamperData. It's a nice addon for Firefox that let's you view and edit this data.
Firebug and it's derivatives also has the functionality if you have that.
Firebug on firefox using the console and turn on 'persist' it will tell you whats going on after the page posts and stuff. :)

How to get the actual hard link URLs

I am doing research on a subject. The sites which are developed in javascript for eg. https://hp.taleo.net/careersection/2/jobsearch.ftl# . If we click on the paging, the URL doesn't change and yet the contents of the page are changed. Whether there are some variables which are getting submitted and if yes then what are these variables. What would one have to do if one wants the actual hard link the next page for this site or the similar sites. Thanks in advance.
There are no hard URLs... The site is loading it dynamically through ajax.
Inspect the website using Firefox or Chrome/Safari Dev Tools. Open the network tab and submit the form.
Network Tab
As you can see, it's posting the data to that page. Do some investigation and see what you come up with.
You can also try turning off javascript and seeing if it falls back to hard urls.

Creating a testing script which 'skips' file uploads

I am creating a testing script for my team. So far it works fine - it goes to the login form and attempts to login using the details you entered, if that fails it goes to a job description and attempts to apply for a job, selecting a random answer for each screening question until it gets to the actual application form. Unfortunately the application form includes a file upload control, which I don't appear to be able to skip over. Does anyone have any idea if I could actually skip over it or somehow click it? I am using FF7 and from previous posts I can see that apparently FF4 does it - but FF7 doesn't appear to make file uploads clickable through JS.... any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Richard
Javascript can't access file upload inputs for security reasons (e.g. prevent malicious upload of user's files). For this kind of testing you should use a browser automation tool like Selenium http://seleniumhq.org/ (or in web service form https://saucelabs.com/).
