I am working on an application and need to convert an address supplied by user to lat lng and update a google map. I am using angular js version 1.0.0 Problem is in firefox i keep getting a too much recursion error.
app.controller("BasicMapController", function($scope, $timeout){
.......
angular.extend($scope, {
.......
checking_address: false// curently trying to get lat long from address
});
......
I had to create an ngBlur directive since 1.0.0 didn't have it and upgrading is not an option since too much other code breaks.
app.directive('ngBlur', function() {
return function( scope, elem, attrs ) {
elem.bind('blur', function() {
scope.$apply(attrs.ngBlur);
});
};
});
On my page i add ng-blur="onblur_()" to the relevant text area and then in my controller i define the relevant function:
$scope.onblur_ = function ($event) {
if ($scope.checking_address)
return;
var map_scope = angular.element($('.google-map')).scope();
var address = document.getElementById("id_address").value;
if ( !! !address)
return;
$scope.checking_address = true;
var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
geocoder.geocode({
'address': address
}, function (results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map_scope.map._instance.panTo(results[0].geometry.location);
if ($scope.markers[0] == undefined) {
$scope.markers[0] = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map_scope.map._instance,
position: results[0].geometry.location
});
} else
$scope.markers[0].setPosition(results[0].geometry.location);
}
$scope.checking_address = false;
});
}
The code works fine in Opera and Chromium. Any ideas on what could be wrong or how i could get around the problem?
