Remove polyline
- by Fran Rod
I have the next code which show a path using a polyline. How can I remove it?
downloadUrl("myfile.asp", function(data) {
var xml = xmlParse(data);
var markers = xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
var path = [];
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var lat = parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lat"));
var lng = parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lng"));
var point = new google.maps.LatLng(lat,lng);
path.push(point);
}//finish loop
var polyline = new google.maps.Polyline({
path: path,
strokeColor: "#FF0000",
strokeOpacity: 1.0,
strokeWeight: 2
});
polyline.setMap(map);
}); //end download url
I have tried it using the next function but I m not able to make it work.
function removePath() {
polyline.setMap(null)
}
