Greetings all,

I have gone through the “Creating a Store Locator with PHP, MySQL & Google Maps” and just can’t seem to get it working (it seems like the info is just not being read from the DB, and I can’t figure out why).

So I want to use the JA Google map plugin to do what I need.

I have all the data (including the Lat Lon info) to map the points I need.

I just want to create a map with specific locations, and have the popup display some info, an image, and an internal link for more info.

Is there a short way to do this?

Best,
Micah

Hello mate,

I cant support you for this issue, because it exceeds the functions of our plugin.
But I can suggest some tips for you.
The first, you must read the documentation of Google map API (the latest version is V3)

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/demogallery.html

And see this example, I think it is similar to what you want to do

http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/toomanymarkers/toomanymarkers.html

Finally, you must read from database to get lat, lon information to build the data for you map.
You can view source code of the above example for more detail. The data will look like this file

http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/toomanymarkers/markers.js

Hope it helpful for you

Best regards,
ThanhNV
