I'm having a problem working out how to set the zoom level for different countries, I have managed to get the map working and displaying the country, just cannot seem to work out how to set the zoom level.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
George

From the documentation on the Geocoder, there is a viewport and a bounds returned in the geocoder's response which can be used to center and zoom the map on the result.
if (results && results[0] && results[0].geometry && results[0].geometry.viewport)
map.fitBounds(results[0].geometry.viewport);

I am creating a project using google map. My project contains hospital address ( in longitude and latitude) to be stored in database. But I want to show nearest hospital from my current location. And I am unable to figure out how to do it. Please help me with best algorithm and with some code.
Following code is used just to display all hospital address in map now I want is how to show only 3 nearest hospital from my current positiom.
function initMap() {
var mapType = google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP;
var animationType = google.maps.Animation.DROP;
var currentLocationAnimationType = google.maps.Animation.BOUNCE;

lat: 28.3949,
lng: 84.1240
};
var mapOptions = {
center: nepalLocation,
zoom: 7,
mapTypeId: mapType,
};
// actual map
map = new google.maps.Map(mapElement, mapOptions);
var infoWindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var latlngbounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
var geocoder = geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();

} else {

}
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var data = markers[i]
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(data.lat, data.lng);
var image = "img/iconHospital.png";
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({

Here my issue is I am able to drag the marker but while I am dragging the new marker is coming to droppable place and the first one is still there. Here I need that single marker will only drag to any place and no new marker will create.
You are creating two markers in the same place and dragging the top one.
var markers = [{"lat":latitude,"lng":longitude},{"title": title,"lat":latitude,"lng":longitude,"description":desc}];
creates an array with two elements and in the loop, two markers are created.
I am plotting addresses and having an issue with the infowindow showing the right content everytime. Sometimes it shows the right content in the infowindow when clicked and sometimes it shows the wrong information for that map pin.

Your issue is that geocoding is asynchronous. You loop through calling the geocoder on all your addresses, but the order the results are returned in is not predictable.
use function closure to associate the marker with the infowindow
use function closure to associate the address with the marker
use the results of the geocoder inside its callback function.
Note that if you have more that approximately 10 markers in your array you will run into the quota/rate limit of the geocoder.

Since you didn't provide a working JSFiddle, it was rather difficult to figure out what your problem is. That said, you can look at this JSFiddle that I made for you to review what I'm doing, vs what you're doing.
Why are you using setTimeout() to place your markers? Also, you may have better results if you create an individual infoWindow per marker, instead of using a "global" infoWindow (which is what it looks like you're doing).
If you edit your post to add a working example of your problem, I can help further.

EDIT
I trying to create a button that when clicked shows the search result of google places .. I hid the maker and made a function to the button show the marker, but this is not working out
function createMarker(place) {
var placeLoc = place.geometry.location;
var markersr = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
icon:icon2,
visible:false,
position: place.geometry.location,
});
function
function showsearch() {
markersr.setVisible(true);
}
button
<input type="checkbox" name="btn2" onClick="showsearch()" class="btn2" >

Hey I'm new to the google maps api, and I have an embedded map, i'm using geolocation to get the users lat and long, and i'm then filling in the gaps in the maps api. The map, however doesn't work when I use the generated lat and long, but does work if i just type one in
Non-working code:
var map;
var infowindow;

function showPosition(position)
{
var latlon = new google.maps.LatLng( position.coords.latitude + "," + position.coords.longitude );
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {

Any help if appreciated :)
Replace your line:
var latlon = new google.maps.LatLng
(position.coords.latitude + "," + position.coords.longitude);
with
var latlon = new google.maps.LatLng
(position.coords.latitude, position.coords.longitude);
The problem is in concatenating two values into one where constructor expects two parameters.
