Question

I am using geocomplete to load the map. My question is, is there any way to get the bound of the map. I used to use

var bounds = results[0].geometry.bounds;

to get the bound is not working here, my code is given below

  $("#textfield").geocomplete({
              map: ".map_canvas",
              details: "form",
              types: ["geocode", "establishment"]
            })

          .bind("geocode:result", function(event, result){
            alert(result.geometry.bounds);
                alert(result.bounds);

          })

both the alerts show ‘undefined’ as the value.

Answer 1

To get the map, you can do this:

var map = $("#textfield").geocomplete("map")

then you should be able to use

map.getBounds()

or any other built in google map api methods.

Edit: Found this in the downloaded script, there is an example ‘Api’.
