[Pro] Google Maps Problem

Freeway
1

Hi all,

I’m designing a site for a friend who runs a small restaurant and have incorporated the Google Maps action to show the location. When I preview the site when working in Freeway all appears as it should but when uploading to my server to demo an error message appears:

http://www.davidhutton.com/nbg/location.html

I’ve used this action many times before and never encountered any problems?

Can anybody shed any light on why this might be happening? Any guidance would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

David

It looks like that’s the only part of the address that’s actually in the text field. Try removing the line-breaks from the address (replace them with commas) before you paste it into the Marker Action. If you look at the generated code, the Postal Code is the only thing being passed to the function that requests the map.

fwGMapBuild('item2', 'BH1 1PH', 14, true, G_NORMAL_MAP, new GSmallMapControl(), new GMapTypeControl(), false, null, new GOverviewMapControl(), true, 'Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif', 'Natural Bourne Grillers', '');

Hi David,

Does it work if you get the lat/long values from this page http://mapmaker.donkeymagic.co.uk/index.php and enter them into the Action palette?

Hi David,

Try turning off More Efficient code in the Inspector palette for that page. If that still fails send your file in to support(a)softpress.com and we’ll take a closer look there.

Many thanks,

Joe

Ok Joe,

Tried that but still no luck.

When you say “send your file in to email@hidden” I assume you want me to just send you the Freeway document, independent of anything else?

Thanks for sending your file, David. It looks like your API Key is incorrect. Click the button at the bottom of the Action palette and re-enter the domain name to get a new key. I uploaded it to my domain and got the same message as you. I then tried adding the API Key based on my domain and it started working:

http://users.softpress.com/joe/foo/location.html

Hope this helps,
Joe

Thanks for your help Joe. I followed your instructions and it’s working on my server now.

The API key I’d entered originally was supplied by my friend which must relate specifically to his domain name, so when I upload the final site to his server I will need to change the API key back to the one he supplied.

Great support as usual, thanks,

David
