I have a feature on my site to display a google map of a carpool for a particular hike. There are 3 things that should appear on the map:
- Destination spot
- Little pictures of cars to indicate drivers
- Happy faces to indicate people that need a ride.
What happens is that the happy faces and car icons render at random times. Sometimes only cars appear and sometimes only the happy faces. I am wondering if I am doing something wrong in my AJAX.
Here is an example page. See mid-column on the right side for the carpool map:
http://www.comehike.com/hikes/scheduled_hike.php?hike_id=169
In my <body> tag I am doing this:
<body onload="initialize( <?php echo $hike_id; ?> ); placeHikeStartMarker( <?php echo $hike_id; ?> ); placeCarpoolPassengersMarkers( <?php echo $hike_id; ?> ); placeCarpoolDriversMarkers( <?php echo $hike_id; ?> );">
Is there anything in the nature of AJAX of google maps that would cause this sort of inconsistency since the calls are a-synchronous?
