The plugins site is currently in development.
We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.
imGoogleMaps
Although there are other JQuery plugins that enable a developer to integrate Google maps API into websites, I wanted to create a simpler implementation, one that did not have all the options, only the basics. I think that in most situations, a website owner only wants an end-user to be able to view the owner’s address and be able to map directions to that address. In addition, I wanted a plugin that displayed a map interface that is similar to what one would see on Google Maps (auto mode) while also giving the developer the ability to style their own interface (manual mode). This plugin will also display certain Google Map errors codes. In addition, this plugin will allow you to use Ajax to retrieve an address as well as Reverse Geocoding.
0.9 version:
I had incorporated the GStreetviewPanorama object and Street View Overlay into the plugin. I also added the ability to plot multiple addresses ajaxally via a json object and add a business name to the infoWindow.
0.9.2 version:
Now you can display custom marker icons on the maps. You can also display a phone number and description in the infoWindow.
