[OpenLayers-Dev] Integrating Google Maps and Mapserver

Mon Jul 2 00:23:00 EDT 2007

Ok I made some progress but I have hit a few roadblocks. At the moment my
code successfully displays the google map, hybrid and satelite images.
However only if it is opened from its current location if I try to open it
on my server, i get an error displaying that my google maps api does not
correspond. However even when i registered a new one for
http://192.168.1.130 (my server address) the page simply displays as plain
white.

My second problem is getting mapserver to display. Below is my current
attempt to get it to work. What am supposed to call the mapfile?, or direct
it to the url of the working map?

<html>
<head>
  <script src="
http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&amp;v=2&amp;key=ABQIAAAAjpkAC9ePGem0lIq5XcMiuhR_wWLPFku8Ix9i2SXYRVK3e45q1BQUd_beF8dtzKET_EteAjPdGDwqpQ"
type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="../lib/OpenLayers.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

</head>
<body>
<h4>Debortoli Wines OpenLayers Test</h4>

  <div style="width:100%; height:80%" id="map"></div>

  <script defer="defer" type="text/javascript">
    OpenLayers.ProxyHost="/proxy/?url=";

    var map = new OpenLayers.Map( 'map', {controls: [new
OpenLayers.Control.PanZoomBar()]} );
//Adding Controls
    map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.MouseToolbar());
    map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.MousePosition());
    map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.Permalink());

    var layer_switcher = new OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher();
    map.addControl(layer_switcher);
    layer_switcher.maximizeControl();

//Adding Layers
    var google = new OpenLayers.Layer.Google("Google");
    var googles = new OpenLayers.Layer.Google("Google Satellite", { 'type':
G_SATELLITE_MAP });
    var googleh = new OpenLayers.Layer.Google("Google Hybrid", { 'type':
G_HYBRID_MAP });
    var mapserv = new Openlayers.Layer.HTTPRequest("Debortoli Mapserver", "
http://192.168.1.130/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/mapfiles/dbw.map&layers=dbap&mode=browse
");

    map.addLayers([google, googles, googleh, mapserv]);

    map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(135,-28), 4);

  </script>
