Google Maps endless loop on Windows Phone

I used the following code to geolocate an address on google maps:

var address = localStorage.getItem("EventsLocation");
var map = Tiggzi("googlemapEventsDetail");
map.setProperty('address',address);
map.refresh();

Works perfect, but on Windoews Phone I get some kind of an endless loop.
Is there a workaround to avoid this.

Thanks for answering.

Not sure to be honest with you. Check if there are any similar problems/answers on Windows Phone forum.

Max,
Thanks for the hint. Obviously there are some issues with using google maps on a windows phone.
I am just trying to integrate a simple map solution that works as a web application on all smartphone OS.

I am a beginner and I am not in to it right now.
How would you approach the that task.

Is it possible to determine what browser/operating system is using the application and then offer different mapping solutions for each (apple, android, windows phone)? I would appreciate a little advice very much. I am tired of reading and possibly I oversee an easy solution.

Thanks and Best Regards

You could determine what OS/browser is used but it has to be coded. We know that Google Maps widget works well on iOS and Android phones. I'm not 100% sure what kind of support is available on Windows Phone devices.
