I just want to display a default info window with the content The 123456789.
So I am using the maps example from google, and changing the infowindow content. Simple as that.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no"><meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Info windows</title>
<style>html, body, #map-canvas {height: 100%;margin: 0px;padding: 0px}</style>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp"></script>
<script>
function initialize() {
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-25.363882,131.044922);
var mapOptions = {zoom: 4,center: myLatlng};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: 'The 123456789'
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
title: 'Uluru (Ayers Rock)'
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>
</head><body><div id="map-canvas"></div></body></html>
I am getting this in both Firefox and Chrome (expected The 123456789). Only in IE I have the desired result. The rest of the text is wrapped and in chrome the scrollbar is also visible.
Now, as per the documentation, the InfoWindow should be expanded to fit my text, which it does if the content is a bit longer than the one I am testing. Is this a google maps styling issue and how can I simply display that text without custom InfoWindows and without hackish css?

Tested the abode code again. The first time the infowindo is shown its problematic, the following times it's displayed as it should.
Just tested your code and seems to be correct.

One thing you can do is, rather than create the infowindow full of content, you may wanna create the instance and, onclick set the content.
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent('something');
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
You should put the text in a '<div>' tag with style or class that has style attributes
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: '<div style="width: 10em;">The 123456789</div>'
});
You could try adding a listener to the infowindow 'domready' event (using addListenerOnce), close infowindow, then reopen it.
proof of concept code snippet:
function initialize() {
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-25.363882, 131.044922);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatlng
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: 'The 123456789'
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
title: 'Uluru (Ayers Rock)'
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(infowindow,'domready',function() {
infowindow.close();
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'click', function() {
infowindow.close();
});
google.maps.event.trigger(marker,'click');
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);

#map-canvas {

margin: 0px;
padding: 0px

Try to add
style="word-wrap:nospace"
as an attribute of your content
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: '<p style="word-wrap:nospace">'+The 123456789+'</p>'
});
This was due to global img styling. To revert it I just added
.gm-style img { max-width: none; }
Kudos to this answer.

It is said in documentation, that I can set content to node, not only to string, in InfoWindow.
Unfortunately, when I try to set node, it doesn't work:
var point;
point = new google.maps.LatLng(43.65654, -79.90138);
// html = 'hello world';
html = $('<div>hello world</div>');
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: point,
map: map
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function () {
infowindow.setContent(html);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
Jsfiddle is here: https://jsfiddle.net/pmek2zhs/3/
Click on marked and you'll see nothing appears. If you change html variable assignment to commented one, it will work.
$('<div>hello world</div>'); is not an HTML node, it is a JQuery object.
Use $('<div>hello world</div>')[0] to get something the API can use.

How can I add an infowindow to a map without a marker where I can specify the position (latlng) manually.
There is a solution here which uses the click location, but I want to specify it myself. So far, I tried:
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "You start here",
position: document.getElementById('start').value
});
inside the map initialization function and used this code:
infowindow.open(map, new google.maps.LatLng(6.473500, 81.236577));
inside the listener but it didn't work. An error comes up saying it cannot read the latlng given to open the infowindow.
Any ideas?
You have to set the position, either with a google.maps.Marker object in the open call, or if you don't have a marker, setting the position directly. This works:
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "You start here",
position: new google.maps.LatLng(6.473500, 81.236577)
});
infowindow.open(map);

function loadMap() {
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 12,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(6.473500, 81.236577)
});
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "You start here",
position: new google.maps.LatLng(6.473500, 81.236577)
});
infowindow.open(map);
}
window.onload = loadMap();

I know this is a common problem here, i already look at all the topics here for a solution, but still, when i change tabs i continue with this problem:
please take a look at my js code:
function initialize() {
//replace 0's on next line with latitude and longitude numbers from earlier on in tutorial.
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(40.654372, -7.914174);
var myLatlng1 = new google.maps.LatLng(43.654372, -7.914174);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 16,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var myOptions1 = {
zoom: 16,
center: myLatlng1,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
//here's where we call the marker.
//getElementById must be the same as the id you gave for the container of the map
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
var map1 = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas1"), myOptions1);
//google.maps.event.trigger(map1, 'resize');
//map1.setCenter(myLatlng1);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
title:"ADD TITLE OF YOUR MARKER HERE"
});
var marker1 = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng1,
title:"ADD TITLE OF YOUR MARKER HERE"
});
var contentString = '<div id="content">'+
'<div id="siteNotice">'+
'<\/div>'+
'<h2 id="firstHeading" class="firstHeading">ADD TITLE HERE<\/h2>'+
'<div id="bodyContent">'+
'<p style="font-size:1em">ADD DESCRIPTION HERE<\/p>'+
'<\/div>'+
'<\/div>';
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: contentString
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker1, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map1,marker1);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(map, "idle", function(){
marker.setMap(map);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(map, "idle", function(){
marker1.setMap(map1);
});
// To add the marker to the map, call setMap();
google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(map, 'idle', function() {
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
map.setCenter(myLatlng); // be sure to reset the map center as well
});
google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(map1, 'idle', function() {
google.maps.event.trigger(map1, 'resize');
map1.setCenter(myLatlng1); // be sure to reset the map center as well
});
}
function loadScript() {
var script = document.createElement("script");

}
window.onload = loadScript;
i have two maps, one ofr each tab. i could solve the problem of the center point being hide on the left corner with this from other post:
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-hide { /* my_tabs-1 contains google map */
display: block !important;
position: absolute !important;
left: -10000px !important;
top: -10000px !important;
}
but the problem stated here i had no luck even lookin at other topics here.
I found the clean solution:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showAddressMap(){
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 15,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), mapOptions);
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
// searchQuery is the address I used this in a JSP so I called with $
geocoder.geocode( {'address': "${searchQuery}"}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: results[0].geometry.location
});
} else {
alert("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status);
}
});
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
//}
}
JQ(document).ready(function(){
JQ('#tabs').tabs();
JQ('#maptab').bind('click', function() {
showAddressMap();
});
});
</script>
<div id="tabs">
<li><fmt:message key="fieldset.map"/></li>
</div>
<div id="tabs-1">
<fieldset>
<div id="map_canvas" style="height:500px; width:100%;"></div>
</fieldset>
</div>
You need to set the center and trigger a re-size event.
MyMap.setCenter(MyCenterCoords);
google.maps.event.trigger(MyMap, 'resize');
This code google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize') should be in the pageshow like below.
$('#map_result').live('pageshow',function(event){
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
});
By the way, have you found the solutions for this? I actually make it works using css.
I know its not a elegant solution, but you can just add an Iframe inside each tab. and when you click the tab, the map load with the correct sizes.
I just want to load the Google Maps based on the Mouseover event of different div element. For doing this I just used the following simple code. This code itself not working, can someone tell me what mistake I have made?
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {
var mapDiv = document.getElementById('map-canvas');
var map = new google.maps.Map(mapDiv, {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(40.740, -74.18),
zoom: 12,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var content = '<strong>A info window!</strong><br/>That is bound to a marker';
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: content
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: map.getCenter(),
draggable: true
});
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener($("#showmap"), 'mouseover', function(){ alert("Hi");});
</script>
<div id='showmap'>
Show Map
</div>
<div id="map-canvas" style="width: 500px; height: 400px"></div>
Above simple alert function itself not called for this simple code.
The selector returns the jQuery object and the needed element can be accessed directly from the element array with a [0] . Also, make it "addDomListenerOnce", only need to initialize once.
$("#showmap")[0]
see a demo
google.maps.event.addDomListenerOnce($("#showmap")[0], 'mouseover',
function(){ initialize(); });
I just tried using this and this also worked.
Java Script Code:
function initialize(lat,longit,content) {
var mapDiv = document.getElementById('map-canvas');
var map = new google.maps.Map(mapDiv, {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(lat, longit),
zoom: 14,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: content
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: map.getCenter(),
draggable: false
});
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
Html Code:
<div id='showmap' onclick="initialize(1.37422,103.945,'<h2>Tampines</h2>')">
Show Map
</div>
I just tried using an idea from java, can we try a method call from the onclick and check whether it is working and to my surprise it worked.
I'm using Twitter's Bootstrap for defining my CSS. I have made a page with three tabs. The second tab contains a map built with Google Maps. However when opening the page and switching to the second page with the map, the map is not rendered completely. Once I reload the page with the google maps tab as the selected tab the map loads entirely.
I read some posts that advised people with the same problem to add the following code to the javascript:
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'resize', function() {
map.setCenter(homeLatlng);
});
However this doesn't seem to be the solution. Please find the complete code below:
Javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'resize', function() {
map.setCenter(homeLatlng);
});
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(37.4419, -122.1419);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 13,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
downloadUrl("data.xml", function(data) {
var markers = data.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lat")),
parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lng")));
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({position: latlng, map: map});
}
});
}
</script>
HTML:
<div class="tab-pane" id="orange" style="background-color:#E3F2FF;">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:780px; height:400px; overflow:;"></div>
</div>
How can I resolve this? Maybe I can add some javascript that reloads the google maps part once the tab is selected but I don't know how to do this....
Updated code still shows the error:
<div class="tab-pane" id="orange" style="background-color:#E3F2FF;">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:780px; height:400px; overflow:;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="util.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

});
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(37.4419, -122.1419);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 13,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
downloadUrl("data.xml", function(data) {
var markers = data.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lat")),
parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lng")));
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({position: latlng, map: map});
}
});
map.checkResize();
}
</script>
</div>
I was battling with this issue as well. I was using a modal form and it rendered the map when it was hidden. When the tab is shown, you need to trigger this code:
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
map.setZoom( map.getZoom() );
Hopefully it will work for you. If that doesn't work, here is the link where I found the solution. Maybe there will be another helpful comment.
http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=1448
There's a lot of solutions here and frankly they're all wrong. If you have to hi-jack the default functionality of Bootstrap tabs, you might as well not use Bootstrap tabs. If you're only calling resize after the tab is shown, you may still have issues with the GMaps interface (zoom level and such). You simply have to initialize the map after the tab is visible.
var myCenter=new google.maps.LatLng(53, -1.33);
var marker=new google.maps.Marker({
position:myCenter
});
function initialize() {
var mapProp = {
center:myCenter,
zoom: 14,
draggable: false,
scrollwheel: false,
mapTypeId:google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map=new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map-canvas"),mapProp);
marker.setMap(map);
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(contentString);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
};
$('a[data-toggle="tab"]').on('shown.bs.tab', function (e) {
initialize();
});
You can see a working example in this bootply: http://www.bootply.com/102241
Note: if your interface is still glitchy, it could be this issue:
Google Maps API V3 : weird UI display glitches (with screenshot)
Using the most recent gmaps api, you just need to add this to your styling:
.gm-style img { max-width: none; }
.gm-style label { width: auto; display: inline; }
Works for me after testing different delays :
$(window).resize(function() {
setTimeout(function() {
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
}, 300)
});
Hope it helps.
I have solved the problem by using
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
inside show function in bootstrap-tab.js means at the time of showing the box you should trigger resize event and will work..
Edit: I have seen another link with the same answer
Google Maps API v3, jQuery UI Tabs, map not resizing
I have seen this link after solving the problem to find out the reason which is still unanswered that why resize event does not works on the click event of the tabs but works in the tab js
this works fine for me, I use jquery tabs
setTimeout(function() {
google.maps.event.trigger(map, "resize");
map.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng(default_lat, default_lng));
map.setZoom(default_map_zoom);
}, 2000);
from this link https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=1448
To show a google maps in a hidden div, the div must show before the map is created and loaded. Below is an example:
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:500px; height:500px"></div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#button').click(function() {
$('#map_canvas').delay('700').fadeIn();
setTimeout(loadScript,1000);
});
});
function initialize() {
var title= "Title";
var lat = 50;
var lng = 50;
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(parseFloat(lat),parseFloat(lng));
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
title:artTitle
});
// To add the marker to the map, call setMap();
marker.setMap(map);
}
function loadScript() {
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.type = "text/javascript";
script.src = "http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&callback=initialize";
document.body.appendChild(script);
}
</script>
For me, what it worked was to call the function that renders the map after the, in my case, the modal had shown.
All I had to do was:
$(document).on("shown", "#eventModal", function(){
bindMap(coordinates);
});
You can do the same with the tabs, because they also have a "shown" event.
