Jerry,
If you move your map results page code to search criteria page
and have a conditional around it checking for lat and long.
In other words only generate the map if lat and long are not null;
In your direct action, instead of calling the map results page call
map search criteria page after setting the lat and long.
It should work fine.

Hello again,
Ok, I followed Praveen Boppana's advise and got this working via
direct action.
I can submit latitude and longitude coords via a "map criteria
search page" and
generate a "map results page"
What I would like to do now is embed the map criteria selection and
results
in a page as a component instead of generating a "map results page"
and
having the user go back to the "criteria page". Any suggestions?

Hello ,
Thanks for the pointers.
I am having a brain fart and can't quite seem to get this figured
out.
This is what I did:
I went to google's map api page, generated an api key,
put the auto generated code snippet html in a component
in a webobjects app build an ran, the page came up fine.
The url I used was something like http://mymachinename:6000
I figuered I can get this to run in direct connect mode first
before running through a websever.
You need to register the key for proper Url path, in your case
http://
yourmachinename:6000/cgi-bin/WebObjects/YourApp.woa/wa/
Anyway the next thing I did was to create a simple woform
with a couple of textfields to allow the user to select
lat and long values, and a submit button
In WO the component Url is dynamic, so we are calling the page
through direct action.
After getting the key as I mentioned above. From your page where user
selects Lat/Long, call the direct action which returns the map page.
Well after building and running I get this javascript popup
message: The Google Maps API key used on this web site was
registered for a different web site.
You can generate a new key for this web site at http://
www.google.com/apis/maps/.
You get this message If the Url path that you registered for the key
is not matching with Components Url.
Any pointers on how to get this to work?
Code snippets if possible.
thanks,
Jerry

We are using Google maps with WO without any trouble at all. You
should be fine by simply studying the many example on Google's
site.

I've not used it with WO, but it was real easy to get it going
with
Click (another Java-based web framework - click.sf.net). The
trick is
getting the XML right (I am plotting a bunch of points on a map).
There are hundreds of tutorials and guides out there. I don't
foresee
any issues with getting it working with WO - all you need to do is
pass a big XML string into their javascript functions and away
you go.
This is a pretty good intro:

Sorry I can't share code, only encouragement...
Good luck, and have fun! There's a lot of goodies in there.
