I will explain. I managed to have a draggable pin on a map. I want to retrieve the coordinates of this point and put them into two fields: Latitude and Longitude. These coor
Google Maps V3 Example. Here's a working example of a user dropping a single pin, replacing a dropped pin with new pin, custom pin images, pins that populate lat/long values in a FORM FIELD within a DIV.

<body onLoad="initialize()">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:50%; height:50%"></div>
<div id="latlong">
<p>Latitude: <input size="20" type="text" id="latbox" name="lat" ></p>
<p>Longitude: <input size="20" type="text" id="lngbox" name="lng" ></p>
