Echo styles into the mashup of a google map and wordpress custom fields
- by zac
Using wordpress, I am pulling in a custom fields from specific posts to fill in the content for a google generated map. I am using this code
var point = new GLatLng(48.5139,-123.150531);
var marker = createMarker(point,"Lime Kiln State Park",
'<?php $post_id = 182;
$my_post = get_post($post_id);
$title = $my_post->post_title;
$snip = get_post_meta($post_id, 'mapExcerpt', true);
echo $title;
echo $snip;
?>')
map.addOverlay(marker);
I am trying to echo css style blocks but this causes a javascript error
var point = new GLatLng(48.5139,-123.150531);
var marker = createMarker(point,"Lime Kiln State Park",
'<?php $post_id = 182;
$my_post = get_post($post_id);
$title = $my_post->post_title;
$snip = get_post_meta($post_id, 'mapExcerpt', true);
echo "<div class='theTitle'>";
echo $title;
echo "</div>";
echo $snip;
?>')
map.addOverlay(marker);
I get the error
missing ) after argument list
and the output is
var point = new GLatLng(48.5139,-123.150531);
var marker = createMarker(point,"Lime Kiln State Park",
'<div class='theTitle'>Site Title</div>Site excerpt')
map.addOverlay(marker);
Can someone please show me a more elegant (working) solution for this?
