Question

This question is solved, even though the answer is irrelevant to the title. This was a badly structured question and to my disappointment I can’t delete it as it is. Thanks for the help and looking at the code.

I have 2 normal javascripts function and one jquery function for my application using google maps. In brief, it looks like this

<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function()
{
    initialize();
}
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
var geocoder;
var markerE;
var theLocation;
var myLatlng;
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var markersArray = [];
var eventMarkerArr = [];
var retrievedLatLng;
var retrievedLatLngArr = [];

var map;
$(document).ready(function(){    
 $('#tabs a').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    $(this).tab('show');
    if($(this).attr("href").substring(1)=='event')
    {   
        show('event');
        hide('location');
    }
    else if($(this).attr("href").substring(1)=='location')
    {
        show('location');
        hide('event');
    }
    });
   });


    function initialize() {
 geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder(); 
 var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(1.3667, 103.7500);
  var myOptions = {
    zoom: 13,

        alert("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status);
      }
    });
  }

google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, ‘load’, initialize);

The reason why I’m doing this is because I can’t seem to get latlng. What i did at first was to initialize the maps with window.onload = function(){ initialize() } and call the .ajax function in a $(window).load(function(){...}); I can’t get it right either ways.

Sorry if this sounds confusing. I’ll add in more details if this isn’t enough.

Edit:

results[0].geometry.location is the latitude longtitude that is produced from reverse geocoding a 6 digit postal code. I want the full address, but only have the 6 digit postal code. The latitude and longtitude is used to also place a marker on the google map. So to get the full address I’m trying to get a json result using the url provided by google.

More Edit:
Added full length of code

Answer 1

ASSUMING that results[0].geometry.location is ALREADY a valid location. I do not see this to be a fact, but you might have that already

  url: "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng="+results[0].geometry.location.lat() +","+results[0].geometry.location.leg()+"&sensor=false";

You might want to check if the seperation with comma is correct
