Hi all, I am trying (in vain) to add a zoomable Google map to my advert listings page (viewlisting.tpl) using a postcode (zip code) added by my advertisers using an extra field. However, when I insert the extra field in to the code and test it, it says "Geocode was not successful for the following reason ZERO_RESULTS" {literal}<script src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=MYAPIKEY&sensor=false" type="text/javascript"></script>{/literal} {literal} <script> var geocoder; var map; function initialize() { geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder(); var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644); var mapOptions = { zoom: 14, center: latlng, mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP } map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions); codeAddress(); } function codeAddress() { var address = '{get_extra_field id=$view fid=14}'; geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) { if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) { map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location); var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ map: map, position: results[0].geometry.location }); } else { alert('Geocode was not successful for the following reason: ' + status); } }); } google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize); </script>{/literal} <div id="map-canvas" style="width:100%;height:300px;"></div> any thoughts on either what I am doing wrong or what is missing ?????? Cheers Jason.
I can't say for sure, but I imagine you are not getting results because the extra field is within the javascript which is within the "{literal}{/literal}" which is telling Smarty, "DO NOT PROCESS THIS!" I would suggest getting out of "{literal}", something like this: Code: var address = '{/literal}{get_extra_field id=$view fid=14}{literal}'; You can see examples of this in several template files that have javascript within them, such as forms (javascript validation), etc..
