Basic Google Map of Address

[Sean Kelley]

When doing basic mapping of a single address with a google map component, should you always get coordinates (via google geo service) before displaying mapping or should it be ok to map address only with no service calls to get longitude and latitude?

I ask this because when you simply add google map to page with default adress (aka San Francisco) and then test, I get the error in console:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'getBounds' of undefined
The map displays correctly however.

I never noticed this when using some months ago. I do not see the error on other tutorials when I used geocoord service to map multiple locations.

It doesn't matter where you get the address or lat/lon information for the map.

so why am I getting this error? is it an Appery bug in map component?

[maxkatz]

Can you show us your setup?

[Sean Kelley]

there is not really anything to show. add page, add map component (some default address in properties custom address), click test, then view map page. you see console error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'getBounds' of undefined
xR
(anonymous function)
but map renders ok.

Yes, the map works fine. I think you can ignore this error.. but we'll check.

ok-thanks, let me know if I need to do it differently
