I am adding multilingual support to my map (Mapquest javascript sdk v7.0.s).
I want to show the title shown in mouse over the control(say pan or zoom) in french.
With reference to below page, i understand i have to override the control. http://developer.mapquest.com/web/documentation/sdk/javascript/v7.0/custom
Since i want to modify only small portion of the original code.
Where i will find the original source code to download.
What is best practice to resolve the problem.
Here is a quick and dirty way I did it.
MQA.withModule('largezoom',function(){
map.addControl(new MQA.LargeZoom());
var rosette=(document.getElementById('panControlImageMapmap'))?document.getElementById('panControlImageMapmap').childNodes:document.getElementById('panControlImageMap').childNodes;
rosette[0].title="meilleur ajustement";
...
});

I am actually looking for a way to customize my window popups like it is done on this website : http://www.nytimes.com/newsgraphics/2013/quiet/#/map/
I have been looking on all the web and no way to find it ...
Any ideas or website explaining it ?
Thanks guys
The javascript code uses a combination of JQuery, JQueryUI, qTip2, and a couple of other libraries for localization and media player abilities.
You can find the specific javascript code for those markers here: NYTimes Map - zoom.js
All the css is found here: NYTimes Map - quiet.css
The main tool used for the mouseover parts is qTip2. Tutorials and demos can be found on the website. That's probably the thing you're going to want to start with.
There is a Leaflet extention called Leaflet.Rrose. Description from Leaflet plugins page:
For use when you want popups on mouseover, not click, and you need popup tips to reorient as you get close to the edges of your map.
Check out examples on extensions' page.
i want to show my current location on custom map.The custom map is of my locality....so,please help me how can i use custom map in place of google map???
The main problem with offline maps is not the "map" but all the stuff you need to build to georeference your map.
Think only at a map zoom.
There are many good open source libraries/SDK to manage offline maps.
--EDIT--
It seems that the free code I found was removed.
As soon as I will find a new available one I will update this comment
Does anyone have a good guideline on how to initialize a pushpin on the Bing Maps control?
My current scenario works, but is not 100% correct... let me explain the details:
When I open the page with the Bing Maps control on it, I want the user to be able to push a small button that will show his current location.
To show the current location, I'm using a Pushpin. I'm already adding the Pushpin on the control in the XAML file like this:
<map:Pushpin> x:Name="currentLocation" Location="{Binding CurrentLocation}" Content="Me" ManipulationStarted="CurrentLocationPin_ManipulationStarted" </map:Pushpin>
Now with this scenario there a some problems!
One, the pushpin is always visible! So how do I go about this? ( I know I can bind the Visibility also to a property and use a bool to visibility converter, but is this the best way to do this? )
Secondly, now I don't initialize the Location in the viewmodel... but for semantic reasons I would love to initialize the default value to Geocoordinate.Unkown ( that way I can use this to do checks when the user tries to do some manipulation before a currentlocation is set ). But when I initialize the pushpin on startup I get following error: "UIElement.Arrange(finalRect) cannot be called with Infinite or NaN values in finalRect.". So my question again :) what is a good guideline to setting up a currentlocation pushpin? ( but do mind that the users has to push a small application bar button before the currentlocation is set )
The initialization problem is due to the visibility of the Pushpin. If the initial visibility of the Pushpin is Collapsed, then it won't take part in the arrange pass, so you won't get the error.
If you're using a view model to back this view, then I don't see a problem with exposing a property from the view model that determines whether the Pushpin should be visibile or not. Yes you could use a boolean to visibility converter, but you could save some processing by actually exposing a Visibility property (which is the approach I've used).
If you're using a command to initiate showing the Pushpin from the button push (the Silverlight Windows Phone Toolkit has a behavior to enable hooking up application bar buttons to commands).
I am wondering how Amazon did the highlight/note popup buttons in the Kindle app. After reading about UIPasteboard, UIMenuController, UIResponder, and UIResponderStandardEditActions, I am able to turn on or off standard edit actions (i.e. copy, cut, paste, select, and selectAll). However I haven't found a way to add a custom action yet. I would really appreciate it if I could get a pointer.
Thanks in advance!

It looks like Amazon implemented their own custom view that mimicked the appearance of UIMenuController. I believe they did this rather than use SPI because if you click and hold on the Highlight cell, the arrow does not highlight, when it does in the real UIMenuController.
I don’t think there is a public interface to these controls, you’d probably have to code them yourself. (Or maybe figure out the private API, but that’s a slippery slope.) I am not sure about that, though, maybe somebody will prove me wrong.
That's a good point about the arrow part of the Notes/Highlight popup menu not highlighting, so they must be implementing their own.
However they are also obviously using a UIWebView, because it's recognizing tap and hold and they can highlight the text, and you can't get touch events from a UIWebView, much less get the information about what's selected. So how are they doing that?
This would be very useful for us to be able to do as well.
Use DTMenuController http://www.drobnik.com/touch/2010/01/dr-touchs-parts-store/
Costs 100 EUR ^_^
Custom menu items can be added via the UIMenuController's menuItems property. See Apple's UIMenuController docs.
the javascript part can be managed with jQuery, that's a fair simple and powerful library. i'm using it for resizing and rearranging things in a webview and it works great :)
I need you help. I saw one application myhomes for iphones. link for that app is from myhomes.com. they are using map in which markers are there when you click on marker one button is displayed(that is really a thaught for me how to disply a button in objective c when we click on marker in webview because there we might using javascript ). that will redirect to other screen which displays details of that event. I want to use that kind of functionality in my code. they might be using some api. I am very eger to know how they are doing that. rite now i am displaying map with google map javascript and displaying pop of when we click on marker. but that pop up is non clickable as it is of html type. how can i put a button on my uiview at the same position where my marker is ? how to combine objective c with javascript ? i know most of the developers might aware of this. please try to help me. that will be a great appreciation.
hopefully looking for the answers ...
Thanks a lot
