I have been successfully using GoogleMaps API 2.5 for number of years.

Here is an example on our production server...
http://www.extraalarm.org/stations/station_location_maps/mpls_fire_station_locations_prod.php

It has been operating on this production Unix/APACHE2.0/Php 5.2
machine for years.

The API operated great on my FORMER Windows XP/IIS/PHP4.2
machine also until....

I upgraded my LOCAL machine to a Windows7/Apache/PHP5.2
machine and then it ALL worked except for one important
API function.

I used to on my old XP machine do this..,.

[code]$two_two_icon = "http://localhost/mult_alarm_data/graphics/2-2_alarm.png" ;

// followed later by...

$map1->addMarkerIcon('$two_two_icon,$shadow_icon,17,0,23,10);

Now the addMarkerIcon no longer accepts the icon reference.
And yes I have checked the reference and its DOES point to the correct
location.
'
I am suspicious that I neglected to install something correctly on my
local machine because the SAME EXCACT code operates prefectly
on the production machine, but does not on my local server.

Where have I goofed up?

Help please

To clarify further...

If I paste the url...
http://localhost/mult_alarm_data/graphics/2-2_alarm.png

into my browser address line I get the proper image of the
2-2_alarm.png icon. So this url is PROPERLY converting
http://localhost into the proper file location of..'

c:/eaahmpg/eatc7402/www

But when the http://localhost/mult_alarm_data/graphics/2-2_alarm.png
is passed to the $map1->addMarkerIcon($two_two_icon,$shadow_icon,17,0,23,10);

as the string $two_two_icon

the proper derivation for the localhost address is not accomplished.

This is a NEW instalation of BOTH Apache and PHP5.2

Both the php.ini and the hpptd.conf files NEED adjustment so that I
am pointing to the proper place for my DOCUMENT ROOT.

But WHERE should the correct adjustment be made??

To further give some troubleshooting info....

If I comment out the addmarkericon() line in the code the map
produces fine, except uses the default icons.

If I attempt to use the addmarkericon() the screen attempts to load
the localhost... then a looooong pause is followed by a BLANK
screen.

Re-comment out the offending line and the map will be produced
again.

HELP PLEASE!!!


I need a steer as to what the problem might be.

GoogleMapsAPI has a new home, you might ask there:

Ok I have copied ALL my posts related to this problem to the
new Google forum. I hope I can find a resolution to my issue there.

I feel I have neglected to do a proper setup of something.
