I have a problem showing a custom icon in the GoogleMap API.

i get the error message:GoogleMapAPI:createMarkerIcon: Error reading image: logo.png.

i did the following: i added the following line in the file:

$map->setMarkerIcon('logo.png','logo.png',0,0,10,10);


I anyone can explain to me how to intergrate a custom icon i would be realy happy!

this is the file:

<?php
require('GoogleMap/GoogleMapAPI.class.php');

$map = new GoogleMapAPI('map');
// setup database for geocode caching
$map->setDSN('mysql://*****:******@localhost/*****');





// enter YOUR Google Map Key
$map->setAPIKey('YOURGOOGLEMAPKEY');

// create some map markers
$map->addMarkerByAddress('koningstraat 277 den haag','Fahiemoto','<b>Fahiemoto</b>');
$map->addMarkerByAddress('koningstraat 300 den haag','Raies','<b>Raies</b>');
$map->addMarkerByAddress('Koningin Wilhelminaplein 1 den haag','<b>Showroom</b>');
$map->addMarkerByAddress('Rijswijkseweg 622 den haag',"Hoofdkantoor","<b>Hoofdkantoor</b>");
$map->setMarkerIcon('logo.png','logo.png',0,0,10,10);



?>

Use the full path to the icon, relative to doc root. Start with a slash /. See the example in the docs.

Does $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] have a value in your PHP script? It relies on that to be set to your doc root to find the image.

My guess is that getimagesize() does not like a URL path. Try using a local system filepath (relative to doc root.)

Try using /vin/gmap/Bonsplans.png as the filepath.

Hello,

i have tested with a locale path and it works fine, but it will be nice if it works with "http" localisation ( and https )...

getimagesize() does not like URLs. Use the same path as you would use inside an <img src=""> tag. It is that way on purpose so you don't need to think about system paths. I suppose it could internally chop off the host, but I think using the relative path in the first place is a better choice.
