Question

The following javascript code is not working which has a query to google fusion table.

$('#map_canvas').gmap({ 'center': new google.maps.LatLng(37.447038,-122.160575), 'zoom': 11, 'mapTypeId' :  google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP, 'callback': function(map) {

$('#map_canvas').gmap('loadFusion', { 'query': { 


    'from': '297050' ,
    'orderBy': ST_DISTANCE('Address', LATLNG(37.447038,-122.160575)),
    'limit':10 } });

var t = setTimeout(function() {$('#dialog').dialog('close');}, 2000);                       
                }
}); 

If I remove the query line having the orderby clause (as below) it works fine

$('#map_canvas').gmap({ 'center': new google.maps.LatLng(37.447038,-122.160575), 'zoom': 11, 'mapTypeId' :  google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP, 'callback': function(map) {

$('#map_canvas').gmap('loadFusion', { 'query': { 


    'from': '297050' ,

    'limit':10 } });

var t = setTimeout(function() {$('#dialog').dialog('close');}, 2000);                       
                }
});

Answer 1

The “orderBy” property seems to work as a string. Instead of:

'from': '297050' ,
'orderBy': ST_DISTANCE('Address', LATLNG(37.447038,-122.160575)),
'limit':10 } });

Try (notice the double quotes (“) around the orderBy property:

      query: {
        select: 'Address',
        from: 297050,
        orderBy: "ST_DISTANCE('Address', LATLNG(37.447038,-122.160575))",
        limit:5
      },
