Traffic information

Hi,

One of the great features of Google Maps is the traffic information that can be displayed on the map. Unfortunately, traffic information are only available for the USA. People living outside the USA can access the information but I don't think it will be really useful to them.

1) PL/SQL Region - PLGMAPS code











2) Example

As you can see on this map, the information might not be accurate all the time. In this case, we see a car incident that is expected to end in December 2008. No one can survive a 3 months car crash! ;)

How to debug - Hello World

Hi,

To facilitate the debugging of Google Maps integration to your web page, the official Google Maps API contains functions to print information to a log window.
This example will show 3 ways to print information to the log window.
I will add a "print to log" functionality to the major procedures of PLGMAPS. For example, if you add markers to the map, the log window will display the coordinates of the markers. Without this log window, you'll have to read the generated JavaScript code and find the information your are looking for.
