Default MVC project with google map

Hi,

This code (2 files) works fine itself, but I would like to embed it in MVC default project.

How the code can be devided into project pages (Index.chtml, _Layout.cshtml etc.)?

index.html

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Main Page</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a1/jquery.mobile-1.0a1.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a1/jquery.mobile-1.0a1.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div data-role="page">
<div data-role="header"><h1>Main Page</h1></div>
<div data-role="content"><p><a href="map.html">Map</a></p></div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// When map page opens get location and display map
$('.page-map').live("pagecreate", function() {
if(navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position){
initialize(position.coords.latitude,position.coords.longitude);
});
}
});

function initialize(lat,lng) {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: latlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),myOptions);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>

Map.html

Re: Default MVC project with google map

Put the following in your layout file

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a1/jquery.mobile-1.0a1.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a1/jquery.mobile-1.0a1.min.js"></script>

In the home controller index view put the following (notice i changed the link to an action link):

<div data-role="page">
  <div data-role="header"><h1>Main Page</h1></div>
  <div data-role="content">
    <p>
      @Html.ActionLink("Map","Map","Home")
    </p>
  </div>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// When map page opens get location and display map
$('.page-map').live("pagecreate", function() {
if(navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position){
initialize(position.coords.latitude,position.coords.longitude);
});
}
});

function initialize(lat,lng) {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: latlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),myOptions);
}
</script>

In the home controller create an action named "Map" and build a view for it. In the view put the following:
<div data-role="page" data-theme="b" class="page-map" style="width:100%; height:100%;">
<div data-role="header"><h1>Map Page</h1></div>
<div data-role="content" style="width:100%; height:100%; padding:0;">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:100%; height:100%;"></div>
</div>
</div>

hi,

Thank you for reply.

Unfortunetly, map view remains gray and I can't see the map.

I put alert message after: $('.page-map').live("pagecreate", function () but the message is not fired.

any idea?

See javascrip errors( enable show errors in IE)

Re: Default MVC project with google map

You can also use IE9's developer tool > network > start to see if your scripts are loading properly.

Thank you all.

Delete the following lines solved the problem.

<link href="@System.Web.Optimization.BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/Content/css")" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<script src="@System.Web.Optimization.BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/Scripts/js")"></script>
