Converting an HTML element to a String/Object - javascript

I'm creating an AngularJS app that basically has a table and a search bar. The table is locations, and when you click on a link its supposed to take you to said location via an embedded Google Map. Im having trouble with the Map when I try to Pan it to the new location. Here is what the app looks:
Is there anyway to be able to click on a name/coordinates (name is preferred so I can remove the coordinates column) and convert the coordinates to a string/object that I can use to set a location on Google Maps?
Thanks in advance!!!

Getting correct code for Weather.com weather map

I want to put a weather map on my site. I am using imagery from Weather.com's map. One of the map images is: , for example (http://h1.ortho.tiles.virtualearth.net/tiles/h0320101.png?g=1). I want to tile these images so they make a map. I can do this. But when I want to mpt the current radar image there, Weather.com updates the url every few minutes, so the link to the image changes. So one minute the link is http://g0.imwx.com/TileServer/imgs/radar/u1383022800000/0320100.png and the next it's http://g0.imwx.com/TileServer/imgs/radar/u1383089700000/0320100.png.
The thing that changes is the numbers in the link, for example: u1383089700000 in the image link. I got this link from weather.com's small weather map on the "right-now" page for 21157. Is there a way to find out what this number is when the page loads? Right now I am just using a parameter in my site's url, then it inserts that in, but I have to find the code.
A better way to do this would be to use some client side map as a service solution like google maps or mapbox and then hitting weather.com api to get weather data by location. Once you have this data, you can then plot it on top of the client side map again using google maps api or the mapbox api.
I hope that helps.

Is it possible to add a placemark to a custom map via maps API?

What I'm trying to do is rendering a map via the JS API then, using the drawing controls feature, add a placemark to the map and finally save the placemark position somewhere.
This way the next map rendering could show the previous saved placemarks.
I though my placemarks could be saved in a google maps public/private map but I didn't find a way to do it. Is this possible to do it or do I have to save my placemarks in my DB or on a my fusion table?

Google like customize and preview embedded map in my site?

i whant to have something similar like googles customize and preview embedded map. is it possible that users just find location on the map, type in the size they want and just copy the generated code?
What it sounds like is that you want to allow people to select and save a custom Google map of their own within your app.
A simple way to do so would be using Google maps APIto create a map inside a container dom element. You would then allow user to resize the container element which would essentially allow them to position the map and also their chosen size.
When the user is finished resizing and positioning, you would need to make another call to the API to get the current lat/long of the map as well as getting the dimensions of the container. With the lat/long and container dimensions saved, this should be enough information for you to save the users custom map.
Hope this helps.

api v 3 google maps selecting cities

Hello is it possible to select custom address after geocoding?
Like in image below?
Also can look on this link from Google maps: click here
This is currently not available directly in the Maps API. However, if you had the polygon boundaries of the region, you could create a polygon overlay.
The Twitter-API has a service that returns those polygon-boundaries.
Add "Search Area" outline onto google maps result
Use a tool to create the boundary by creating it and it will get converted into a JSON file... Use the coordinates of the JSON file to create the polygon....
