Google Maps Script Error

[scharott]

This isn't a similar problem of exiftoolGUI.
There is a discussion since some of months

https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=9004

Maybe it will gone with the next update of googlemaps

Hi Bogdan,

... the script error keeps coming ... http://maps.google.com/maps-api-v3/api/js/24/6a/onion.js...

Perhaps I missed something in the forum but is this issue fixed or fixable by you Bogdan?
Is it a setting somewhere that I can configure by myself?

I'm using Windows7 and version 5.16 of ExiftoolGUI.

I apply ExifToolGUI since a couple of years as the excellent standard tool to manipulate GPS data. But one day ago I couldn't show the marker in the Google at the position determined by the GPS data. If you know the right position then hovering with the mouse on it shows a field with the co-ordinates.
Looking inside the ExifToolGUI.exe by means of an hex editor shows the reason of the mismatch. The embedded JavaScript links to the markers in the Google Maps API that are dead! By the way the red colored Google Maps standard marker doesn't need a link.
A code snippet:
markerA = new google.maps.Marker({
           position: map.getCenter(),
           map: map,     
           draggable:true//,
           //icon:"http://google.com/mapfiles/ms/micons/red.png"
           });
I tested it and it works! The commented part could be deleted.

The easiest way to fix the problems could be to deliver the markers as *.png images and then to link them in the related JavaScript.
In the current state of ExifToolGUI I can't use it furthermore. Please make a change.

A new script error has now appeared (using the ...fixGM version). For some time The Google Maps screen has displayed the message "You are using a browser that is not supported by the Google Maps JavaScript API. Consider changing your browser", but the map has worked anyway. Today, I get a new script error, stating that there is an error in http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&region=EU, and the map no longer appears.

If you can fix this I would really appreciate it.

Thanks.
