[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers and Google v3.6 geocoder x and y variable name change ?

[Tobias Reinicke]

Ah yes, I used to have this issue.

To solve it, instead of calling the variables themselves, call the methods
to get them:

var position = results[0].geometry.location;
                    var x = position.lng();
                    var y = position.lat();

hope that helps.

Toby
