How to...

getGMapElementById

getGMapElementById... mmm, sounds good, no?

It works just like it sounds: it gets the Javascript ID of the elements that have been added to the map (normally markers), so that the limits are endless ;)

It can be used by means of a static method of the GMap class, or as a method of your instance of the control.

Like always, this simple example is enlightening (click on the map and the icon):



Code.aspx
<cc1:GMap ID="GMap1" runat="server" enableServerEvents="True" OnClick="GMap1_Click" OnMarkerClick="GMap1_MarkerClick" />

Code.aspx.cs
protected string GMap1_Click(object s, GAjaxServerEventArgs e)
{
    return new GMarker(e.point).ToString(e.map);
}

protected string GMap1_MarkerClick(object s, GAjaxServerEventArgs e)
{
    string markerID = GMap1.getGMapElementById(e.who);

    string js = string.Format(@"
    if ({0}.isHidden())
        {0}.show()
    else
        {0}.hide();
    ", markerID);

    js += string.Format("alert('point: ' + {0}.getPoint() + ' - icon: ' + {0}.getIcon().image);", markerID);

    return js;
}
