Hey guys!
I have seen some of you have asked about how to map addresses from a database using Google Maps API. I also spent some days trying to figuring it out.

I even tried to follow Google’s documentation on how to do it but I just couldn’t get it to work that easily. after several days i finally got it to work.

I just wrote some instructions on how to do it and i thought id share it with you.

yes it is, but since i dont know much about javascript and object oriented programming, it took me a good while to figure it out.

Here is the google code page: http://code.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=65622

This would serve its purpose well in Source/Experiments, or you can submit it for tutorial review to Kirupa, though you might want to go into more detail about how the code works if you choose that route. :slight_smile:
