Set Zoom Level?

I am new to google maps but can hack my way around a bit.

I am trying to get the map to zoom out to a specific point where I can see a bunch of property locations within a 15 mile radius of NYC. I have tried setZoom(x) in the wagmp_map_1() function as map.setZoom(10); but the map displays nothing. Is this correct location or do I need to setCenter first?

Thanks neat product so far.

Do you have a sample url I can look at. I can take a look and see what I can see.

Thanks for the quick response.

bronx-map.html

Although I have taken the code out at this point.

Update: helps to read the docs:) - although I still don't seem to be zooming out...

map.setZoom();

should be right... where are you adding it?

try adding it right after: marker_5.openInfoWindowHtml(address_5.infowindowtext);

I read the docs and it says to add setZoom after each instance of map.addOverlay? Sort of had it working. But can I just add it once?

Thanks!

Back again this time I am using the recordset method of displaying address, no problem there. Just wondering how I can adjust the zoom level to see a wider view of these locations, and I assume I may need to adjust the center location as well.

Here is a new link

map.asp

Thanks!

It seems like you could add the .setZoom call after the last instance of .addOverlay and it should work.

I get mixed results... Seems whatever value I put in I either get a view from outer space or no change at all... odd any ideas? Another thing is the map will not load at all in IE6 even before the change.


Thanks!

I have applied all code changes that are on this thread and the online documentation. The code that my page now displays has the setZoom() code after the map.addOverlay lines.

IE 8 is showing this 'Error on page':

Line: 1599
Char 1
Error: 'wagmp_map_3_obj.getPointByAddress(...)marker' is null or not an object

Safari also has a problem with the zoom just like IE. On Firefox, everything works great. I am assuming this is a browser conflict with the code.

In IE and Safari, with the zoom set to 14, I am still getting the view from Space.
