Some things about ASP.NET, C#, ASP.NET AJAX, javascript...

GoogleMaps.Subgurim.NET 3.0 just released

The GoogleMaps.Subgurim.NET 3.0 version brings us a lot of improvements, news features and bugs correction.
It is, probably, the most important change made since this Google Maps control for ASP.NET was born. There is a list with the most important changes:

The Subgurim control is fantastic and really easy to set up.  I've got a short tutorial on my blog on how to integrate it into an asp.net page here:

Cheers,

Hi,

You can contact the developers on the forum.

And about your problem, it's a GoogleMaps API problem, this control only parses ASP.NET to javascript, and ads some extra features... but this feature is not one of them :D

Hi

In general this is a very good and useful control but there are many mnay unanswered posts in many different languages about memory leaks. These are not the same as the leak caused by the google api. It appears to be due to a limitation with re-using exsiting markers. This really requires urgent attention if the control is to be useful

I finally found SubGurim after a long fruitless search amongst open source offerings.  I was able to integrate rapidly into my application without a lot of learning and it worked very well from the outset.

Very good programming and very reasonable prices.

Keep it up!

I'm having similar problems with timer because when timer is ticking the whole map is being refreshed every thick - set to the initial map settings. I just have a data inside the update panel that needs to be refreshed. Map control is outside the panel and I can't figure it out why this happens??

Any solution for solving this?

I'm using 3.0 version.

Thanks.

I'm having problem with the marker, I put a marker on the map for user to move it around. But after postback, the marker value is gone and unable to retrieve back. Anyone have any idea?

Will you be updating your control to support the latest version of Google Maps API? Please continue this great work, we would love to see it work against v3 of Google API.

Please let us know if this is an active project still?
