I’m looking to have 2 google autocomplete on my page. I’ve put one on and it works pretty much straight forward. But after using my brain attempting to have 2 on it, I keep running into problems…
I’ve changed the id of of the second input, added automcomplete2, changed certain parts of the code to add another one but i’m having no luck.
var placeSearch, autocomplete;
var componentForm = {
street_number: 'short_name',
route: 'long_name',
locality: 'long_name',
administrative_area_level_1: 'short_name',
country: 'long_name',
postal_code: 'short_name'
};
function initAutocomplete() {
// Create the autocomplete object, restricting the search to geographical
// location types.
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(
/** @type {!HTMLInputElement} */(document.getElementById('autocomplete')),
{types: ['geocode']});
// When the user selects an address from the dropdown, populate the address
// fields in the form.
autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', fillInAddress);
}
function fillInAddress() {
// Get the place details from the autocomplete object.
var place = autocomplete.getPlace();
for (var component in componentForm) {
document.getElementById(component).value = '';
document.getElementById(component).disabled = false;
}
// Get each component of the address from the place details
// and fill the corresponding field on the form.
for (var i = 0; i < place.address_components.length; i++) {
var addressType = place.address_components[i].types[0];
if (componentForm[addressType]) {
var val = place.address_components[i][componentForm[addressType]];
document.getElementById(addressType).value = val;
}
}
}
The page im working on here http://azzopardi.club/scott/index1.php, if you click “trouble find your property?” a div will appear presenting the autocomplete form…
What I’m seeing currently on your page is that you have multiple elements with the same unique identifier, which is illegal. All id’s must be unique for them to work.
Can you please show us what you are attempting so far as the second autocomplete goes, and initializing that second autocomplete too?
Hi, I’ve removed all changes i had done previously so i can start again.
I’ve tried changing ID’s and used the code below.
var placeSearch, autocomplete;
var componentForm = {
street_number: 'short_name',
route: 'long_name',
locality: 'long_name',
administrative_area_level_1: 'long_name',
country: 'long_name',
postal_code: 'short_name'
};
var componentForm2 = {
street_number: 'short_name',
route: 'long_name',
locality: 'long_name',
administrative_area_level_1: 'long_name',
country: 'long_name',
postal_code: 'short_name'
};
function initAutocomplete() {
// Create the autocomplete object, restricting the search to geographical
// location types.
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(
/** @type {!HTMLInputElement} */(document.getElementById('autolocation')),
{types: ['geocode']});
autocomplete2 = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(
/** @type {!HTMLInputElement} */(document.getElementById('autolocation2')),
{types: ['geocode']});
// When the user selects an address from the dropdown, populate the address
// fields in the form.
autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', fillInAddress);
autocomplete2.addListener('place_changed', fillInAddress);
}
function fillInAddress() {
// Get the place details from the autocomplete object.
var place = autocomplete.getPlace();
for (var component in componentForm) {
document.getElementById(component).value = '';
document.getElementById(component).disabled = false;
}
// Get each component of the address from the place details
// and fill the corresponding field on the form.
for (var i = 0; i < place.address_components.length; i++) {
var addressType = place.address_components[i].types[0];
if (componentForm[addressType]) {
var val = place.address_components[i][componentForm[addressType]];
document.getElementById(addressType).value = val;
}
}
}
function fillInAddress2() {
// Get the place details from the autocomplete object.
var place = autocomplete2.getPlace();
for (var component in componentForm2) {
document.getElementById(component).value = '';
document.getElementById(component).disabled = false;
}
// Get each component of the address from the place details
// and fill the corresponding field on the form.
for (var i = 0; i < place.address_components.length; i++) {
var addressType = place.address_components[i].types[0];
if (componentForm[addressType]) {
var val = place.address_components[i][componentForm[addressType]];
document.getElementById(addressType).value = val;
}
}
}
// Bias the autocomplete object to the user's geographical location,
// as supplied by the browser's 'navigator.geolocation' object.
function geolocate() {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
var geolocation = {
lat: position.coords.latitude,
lng: position.coords.longitude
};
var circle = new google.maps.Circle({
center: geolocation,
radius: position.coords.accuracy
});
autocomplete.setBounds(circle.getBounds());
});
}
}
