Subject: InfoWindow dows not render in IE...Looks fine in Chrome and Firefox...
Hi there,

I have an info window that appears differently in IE than in Firefox.
In Firefox, the InfoWindow looks fine.  Has anyone experienced this
before?  Take a look at the page here:

http://www.laudontech.com/office-floor-plans/

Select an employee from the dropdown list and click Find, then click
on the employee map marker.

Thanks in advance,

M

FYI - Here is the InfoWindowHTML declaration:

function createMarker(point, image, floor, fullname, latitude,
longitude, computer_s,

manufactur, model, cpu, hd, mamory, OS,recycled, loc_histor,
invoice_id, network_po) {
var marker = new GMarker(point, icon);

var html = "<font color=\"black\" size=\"2\"><b>Employee:</b> " +
fullname + " <b><br/>Employee No:</b> " + computer_s + "<b> <br/>Birth
Date: </b>" + manufactur + "<b> <br/>Street Address:</b> " + model +
"<b> <br/>City:</b> " + cpu + "<b> <br/>Zip/Postal Code:</b> " + hd +
"<b> <br/>Telephone:</b> " + mamory + "<b><br/>Email:</b> <a href=
\"mailto:" + OS + "\">" + OS + "</a> <b> <br/>Job Title:</b> " +
loc_histor +   "<br/> <img src=\"" + image + "\"  width=\"250\" height=
\"250\"></font>";

GEvent.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
marker.openInfoWindowHtml(html);

Maybe not. There is currently something untoward injected into your
Javascript by your server-side processing, which doesn't help
diagnosis.

InfoWindows not being large enough usually means that images aren't
known when they are included -- they get zero size and the infoWindow
is sized accordingly. Then when they arrive they push everything
outside the infoWindow graphics. That's easily fixed by including
height and width attributes in the <img> tag.

However in IE your infoWindows aren't big enough for the text either.
Another link which may be useful is http://econym.org.uk/gmap/css.htm

Thanks Andrew...

I still don't get why I have to override the CSS for IE and not other
browsers.  Does this make sense?

Cheers,

M

IE is not a standards compliant browser.  Which IE version are you
using?  What css do you need to override?

Doesn't work very well for me in IE6, I get lots of "Run Time Errors".

hehe...sorry about the errors...this is early in the dev cycle!

I am overriding the css for the map div, so, my infoWindow will work
in IE:

"Fixing the 'inherited CSS' problem

If you have cascading styles that apply to your map div, then those
styles will be inherited by objects attached to the map. That can
cause a problem with the info window contents.
The size of the info window is calculated before the info window is
appended to the map, so it's calculated with the text at the default
size and with the default font. When the info window is appended to
the map, the styles are inherited and the actual size of the contents
may change.

If you don't want to remove the inherited style, or can't remove it
because it's part of something like a Blog template, then you need to
countermand or duplicate the significant parts of the style in the
html that you put in the info window.

E.g. if the map div is inside a container div that has a style
#container {font-size:15pt;} then you could create a style to
countermand that, like .iwstyle {font-size:20pt;} and wrap all your
info window text inside <span class='iwstyle'> ... </span>.

Styles applied directly to the info window contents in this way are
applied before the size is calculated, so the info window will then
fit the contents. In this example the marker on the left inherits the
container style, but the marker on the right has an info window that
is sized correctly."

Still haven't got it to work though!

Thanks Ralph...I can't believe I missed that!  This page has gone
through a lot of transitions and I'm sure I cleared it out at some
point.  That being said, the infowindow looks fine now, but the rest
of the page is a mess!  Can't win!

Cheers.
