Google maps search box outside map

Question

I\'m playing with the Google Maps API, and I\'ve inserted a search-form with autocomplete. The problem is that the input-box is stuck into the map. I can\'t display it outside t

Answer 1

All you need here is to load the Places library. You don't even need to display a map.

new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(
  (document.getElementById('autocomplete')), {
    types: ['geocode']
  });

#autocomplete {
  width: 300px;
}
