Google Maps - user to pinpoint a location
- by JohnB
Hi,
Is it possible to allow users of my website to mark places on a map I display using Google Maps API? I need to then save that location coordinates to a db.
I've been looking through the google maps API, I found that I can use the web service to do searches like this:
http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=Maine,+United+States&output=json&oe=utf8\&sensor=false&key=my_key
But I am not sure it's working on a house number level (which I need it to) and I'm not sure how to display a 'did you mean?' to the user when he misspells the address..
Anyone have an idea?
Thanks,
