I'm dabbling a bit with google maps and data presentation and was wondering if it is possible to create a button on the map page to drop the markers.
I have no programming experience (I deal with SQL mainly) so any help appreciated - I have the following code taken from varying webistes:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
<style type="text/css">
html { height: 100% }
body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0 }
#map_canvas { height: 100% }
</style>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Standard google maps function
function initialize() {
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(52.469397,-3.208008);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
TestMarker();
}
// Function for adding a marker to the page.
function addMarker(location) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: location,
map: map,
animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP
});
}
// Testing the addMarker function
function TestMarker() {
Marker1=new google.maps.LatLng(52.268000,-3.043000); addMarker(Marker1);
Marker23=new google.maps.LatLng(51.524243,-3.193911); addMarker(Marker23);
Marker24=new google.maps.LatLng(51.524243,-3.193911); addMarker(Marker24);
Marker25=new google.maps.LatLng(51.524243,-3.193911); addMarker(Marker25);
Marker26=new google.maps.LatLng(51.524243,-3.193911); addMarker(Marker26);
Marker584=new google.maps.LatLng(51.747777,-3.500599); addMarker(Marker584);
Marker585=new google.maps.LatLng(51.608871,-3.647570); addMarker(Marker585);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="initialize()">
<div id="map_canvas" style="border: 1px solid black; width: 500px; height: 400px;">map div</div>
<p style="margin-top: 5px">
<button id="drop">Drop</button>
</p>
</body>
</html>
Now this creates a but开发者_高级运维ton, but I can't for the life of me work out how to link this back to my markers. I have found something here that I should be able to adapt but I just don't have the knowhow.
My markers are defined by a sql query, but for now I would like to be able to simply feed in a list and get a drop button to drop them when I click on it.
Any help massively appreciated :)
Remove the call to TestMarker from your initialize function. Then just add an onclick attribute to your button:
<button id="drop" onclick="TestMarker()">Drop</button>
