Plotting Multiple Records in Google Maps

[Ziphius]

Is there an easy way to plot these tracks in Google Maps in a Webviewer rather than a chart? Incidentally, this is a FM13 Advanced file version so not all records get plotted in the chart (apparently there is a limit in older versions, just FYI).

I found a reference to this (after much Googling) - 2048 data point apparently - https://community.filemaker.com/thread/133049

Ive been using this with much success since it came out. 

@schamblee has done much work with google maps and has provided sample files. You can also earch this site and find the samples. 

Heres a screenshot of one of mine

This is a great reference, thank you. Trying to wrap my head around the coding but it certainly is a solution that would work for me.

I'm really struggling with the coding here, maybe someone can help. I've attached the stripped down version to show just geographic coordinates from the source provided (https://community.filemaker.com/docs/DOC-3321 ) but when I try to recreate those elements, I can't seem to get the plotting to work. I've attached the working file and the non-working file. To me they both seem identical. Can anyone tell me what is missing in the non-working file? Thanks.

The problem may be as simple as you have nothing in your Html global field and Source global fields.  Copy the value from the working file into the Html & Source of the non working file, and it works (for me)

Ahh yes, simply copying the html global code seems to work and this then populated the Source global field. THANK YOU!
