Lessons Learned From the Software Industry

Update to Store Locator Project

posted on by

I had a real rookie JavaScript mistake in my Store Locator project that was causing some people some grief. I had no idea this project was actually being used by many people for real live stores and companies. That’s kind of cool (until it breaks).

Anyway, something changed (somewhere – probably the Google Maps API) and people had issues with the map showing up when it shouldn’t have. Oops.

Anyway, I just fixed it and posted a new release to CodePlex. Get it here.

Update 2023-12-08: Source Code Moved Here: Download Zip of Source

    Hello, Thanks for the Store Locator code. It works really well.

    At the moment you code centres the map on the Zip/Postcode and shows locations nearest (your) location. Is there a way to place a Blue Flag Centered on the Zip/Postcode as a “You are here”, so that the user can see where they are in relation to the other markers.

    Is there a way to do this?
