Google Map lng + lat to hidden field not working
- by user547794
Hello,
I am trying to get Marker data into hidden fields on my form. I'm not sure why this isn't working, it must be something in my js syntax:
var initialLocation;
var siberia = new google.maps.LatLng(60, 105);
var newyork = new google.maps.LatLng(40.69847032728747, -73.9514422416687);
var browserSupportFlag = new Boolean();
function initialize() {
var myOptions = {
zoom: 6,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
myListener = google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'click', function(event) {
placeMarker(event.latLng), google.maps.event.removeListener(myListener);
});
// Try W3C Geolocation (Preferred)
if(navigator.geolocation) {
browserSupportFlag = true;
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
initialLocation = new google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,position.coords.longitude);
map.setCenter(initialLocation);
}, function() {
handleNoGeolocation(browserSupportFlag);
});
// Try Google Gears Geolocation
} else if (google.gears) {
browserSupportFlag = true;
var geo = google.gears.factory.create('beta.geolocation');
geo.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
initialLocation = new google.maps.LatLng(position.latitude,position.longitude);
map.setCenter(initialLocation);
}, function() {
handleNoGeoLocation(browserSupportFlag);
});
// Browser doesn't support Geolocation
} else {
browserSupportFlag = false;
handleNoGeolocation(browserSupportFlag);
}
function handleNoGeolocation(errorFlag) {
if (errorFlag == true) {
alert("Geolocation service failed.");
initialLocation = newyork;
} else {
alert("Your browser doesn't support geolocation. We've placed you in Siberia.");
initialLocation = siberia;
}
}
function placeMarker(location) {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: location,
map: map,
draggable: true
});
map.setCenter(location);
}
}
var lat = latlng.lat();
var lng = latlng.lng();
document.getElementById("t1").value=lat;
document.getElementById("t2").value=lng;
<input type="hidden" name="lat" id="t1">
<input type="hidden" name="long" id="t2">
