My mission: Create a map from list such as :
When editing a SharePoint page (edit mode/view) the map throws no errors in the console. But as I go to view the final saved page the map I get this error in the console:
Event Page.aspx:668 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'get_current' of undefined
at retrieveListItems (Event Page.aspx:668)
at Event Page.aspx:789
This error points to this line :
var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
It seems like the PAGE is missing some resources that get added when I'm in EDIT MODE.
This code gets the info from the list to pass to the map script.

Hello all I am trying to resolve an issue with getting my XML data to show in a map. I am still learning the code, but perhaps someone could help me determine why the icons / data will not show.
Here is a sample of my XML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<markers>
<marker
id="461"
name="Pilot Travel Center"
address="I-20 / 59, Exit 123"
city="Birmingham"
state="AL"
zip="35204"
phone="xxx-xxx-xxxx"
fax="xxx-xxx-xxxx"
manager="Joe"
lat="33.529307"
lng="-86.852215"
url="http://www.pilotflyingj.com"
type="restaurant"/>
<marker
id="1402"
name="Flying J Travel Plaza"
address="Ross Clark Highway / Highway 231"
city="Dothan"
state="AL"
zip="36301"
phone="xxx-xxx-xxxx"
fax="xxx-xxx-xxxx"
manager="Johnny"
lat="31.192005"
lng="-85.399838"

and here is the google API portion

I have searched but cannot determine what the issue is. I would greatly appreciate the help. Thank You.
Use the full URL of the custom icons. It needs to be a complete URL publicly available on the web (pointing to your webserver where you have your custom icon).
for example (using icons on my server):
http://www.geocodezip.com/mapIcons/marker_red.png
So define the custom icon structure like this:
var customIcons = {
restaurant: {
icon: 'http://www.geocodezip.com/mapIcons/marker_red.png',
},
bar: {
icon: 'http://www.geocodezip.com/mapIcons/marker_blue.png',
}
};

This is my code for places autocomplete and search.

<script>
var geocoder;
var map;
function initialize() {
var input = document.getElementById('address');
var options = {
componentRestrictions: {country: "in"}
};
var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input,options);
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
//var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(18.52043030000, 73.85674369999);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 15,
//center: latlng,

}
function codeAddress() {
var address = document.getElementById('address').value;
geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);

This is my html code.
<input id="address" type="textbox" size="30">
<input type="button" value="Search" onclick="codeAddress()">
It is working fine but I dont want to user to click the button. When suggestions appeared, and when user select any of suggestion options, map will have to navigate to that place. How do I do this???
When User select any option from dropdown, map should navigate to that place.
Take a look at this example and the implementation of the place_changed event.
var place = autocomplete.getPlace();
// If the place has a geometry, then present it on a map.
if (place.geometry.viewport) {
map.fitBounds(place.geometry.viewport);
} else {
map.setCenter(place.geometry.location);
}
This way you can pan the map to the location of the autocomplete result.
This is my working code..
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp&sensor=false&libraries=places">

if (place.geometry.viewport) {

map.setZoom(17); // Why 17? Because it looks good.
}
marker.setIcon(/** #type {google.maps.Icon} */({

}
infowindow.setContent('<div><strong>' + place.name + '</strong><br>' + address);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
}
function codeAddress() {

Now user can select option from dropdown and map will navigate to that place. And also on search button click.
Hope this might help you

);
googleMap.fitBounds(defaultBounds);
var input = (document.getElementById('searchInput'));//search input element
googleMap.controls[google.maps.ControlPosition.TOP_LEFT].push(input);//binding it to map
var searchBox = new google.maps.places.SearchBox((input));

var places = searchBox.getPlaces();
if (places.length == 0) {

}

I'd like to lean up my initialize() function... but every time I do, it breaks my code.
I'm eventually trying to do something like this, where I have a sidebar with stuff that's directly related to the markers on the map, AJAX'd in... Firstly, I'd like to be able to put other functions outside of the initialize() function. This works fine:

new google.maps.Point(0,18),
new google.maps.Point(11,11)),

};
var myloc = new google.maps.Marker(mylocOptions);
// get location information from browser, or from user input, or from database

if (navigator.geolocation) navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(pos) {
var me = new google.maps.LatLng(pos.coords.latitude, pos.coords.longitude);
myloc.setPosition(me);
myloc.setMap(map);
map.setCenter(me);
$.ajax({
data: { me: me.toString() },
type: 'POST',
url: '/set-location'
})
}, function(error) {
var address = prompt('Where are you looking?');
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
geocoder.geocode({ 'address': address }, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
var me = results[0].geometry.location
myloc.setPosition(me);
myloc.setMap(map);
map.setCenter(me);
} else {
alert("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status);
};
});
});
<% else %>
var me = new google.maps.LatLng(<%= current_user.loc %>);
myloc.setPosition(me);
myloc.setMap(map);
map.setCenter(me);
map.setZoom(12);
<% end %>
// watch for marker movement, and update location accordingly
var oldPos = myloc.getPosition();
google.maps.event.addListener(myloc, "dragend", function(e){
revGeo = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var newPos = myloc.getPosition();
$.ajax({

if(oldPos != newPos)

$('#loc').html(results[1].formatted_address);
}
} else {

}
});
oldPos = newPos;
});
// when creating an event, check for event location,
// verify it's existance and put a marker down on the map
$(document).on('focusout', '#event_location', function() {
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
address = document.getElementById("event_location").value;
geocoder.geocode({ 'address': address }, function(results, status) {

... but I'm sure it can be broken up. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
I am working with the v3 API and trying to recreate the Store Locator sample (which is v2). I like the way the v2 version works vs the same article changed for v3 API. I have everything working with one exception: when I click the location result it does not open up the marker in the map for that location. Here is my code. I think the problem exists in the CreateSidebarEntry() function. Any help would be greatly appreciated! (you can see it in action here: http://www.webworksct.net/clients/ccparking/partners3.php - just enter "orlando" in the search box and click search to get the results, then click a location in the list on the right...nothing happens).

return markers[markers.push(marker)-1];
works and keeps your markers array intact
I found the answer.
In this bit of code:
var marker = createMarker(latlng, name, address);
bounds.extend(latlng);
var sidebarEntry = createSidebarEntry(marker, name, address, distance);
sidebar.appendChild(sidebarEntry);
I was calling createMarker to populate the marker var. I found that it wasn't populating.
In the createMarker function, I needed to make a change so that the function returned a value: markers.push(marker); was changed to return marker; and voila!
