I have codeigniter project which header, footer loading when calling the controller. So after header is loaded I want to add a google map to get latitude and longitude to textboxes when map been clicked. Currently I can do this outside of codeigniter. But I can't do this inside of CI after header loaded. I think its because google use window load function to initialize map.

<script type="text/javascript">
var map;
function initialize() {
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(40.713956,-74.006653);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
draggable: true,
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
title: "Your location"
});
google.maps.event.addListener(map,'click',function(event) {
document.getElementById("latbox").value = event.latLng.lat();
document.getElementById("lngbox").value = event.latLng.lng();
})
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function (event) {
document.getElementById("latbox").value = this.getPosition().lat();
document.getElementById("lngbox").value = this.getPosition().lng();
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:50%; height:50%"></div>
If You're using jQuery, try something like
$(document).ready(function(){
// here paste google maps code
});
Map will initialize when DOM is ready
