I have a PHP page in which address of some person fecth from database table.
Like:
Person name address zip MAP
MR. xyz city1 1234 click
MR. abc city2 1234 click
MR. dfe city3 1244 click
MR. rrr city4 1284 click
If admin clicks on click button of Mr. abc then google map should be open with address or zip of MR. abc and google location should be open on google map of MR. abc
I don't have any idea how to do this? Please give some suggestion.
Now I found a code:
<?php
include("connection.php");
function geocode($address){
// url encode the address
$address = urlencode($address);
// google map geocode api url
$url = "http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address={$address}";
// get the json response
$resp_json = file_get_contents($url);
// decode the json
$resp = json_decode($resp_json, true);
// response status will be 'OK', if able to geocode given address
if($resp['status']=='OK'){
// get the important data
$lati = $resp['results'][0]['geometry']['location']['lat'];
$longi = $resp['results'][0]['geometry']['location']['lng'];
$formatted_address = $resp['results'][0]['formatted_address'];
// verify if data is complete
if($lati && $longi && $formatted_address){
// put the data in the array
$data_arr = array();
array_push(
$data_arr,
$lati,
$longi,
$formatted_address
);
return $data_arr;
}else{
return false;
}
}else{
return false;
}
}
if($_REQUEST){
// get latitude, longitude and formatted address
$data_arr = geocode($_REQUEST['address']);
// if able to geocode the address
if($data_arr){
$latitude = $data_arr[0];
$longitude = $data_arr[1];
$formatted_address = $data_arr[2];
?>
<!-- google map will be shown here -->
<div id="gmap_canvas">Loading map...</div>
<div id='map-label'>Map shows approximate location.</div>
<!-- JavaScript to show google map -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function init_map() {
var myOptions = {
zoom: 14,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(<?php echo $latitude; ?>, <?php echo $longitude; ?>),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("gmap_canvas"), myOptions);
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: new google.maps.LatLng(<?php echo $latitude; ?>, <?php echo $longitude; ?>)
});
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "<?php echo $formatted_address; ?>"
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "click", function () {
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', init_map);
</script>
<?php
// if unable to geocode the address
}else{
echo "No map found.";
}
}
?>
But it gave an ERROR: **Map shows approximate location.**
Is it right code or not?
You can simply add the address and zip in google map url and open it in new tab. The URL can look like this
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=<address>+<zip>
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Delhi+110021
