So, I centered the Google map and then copied and pasted some kind of code into my browser. I started with Morse code. Since I had nothing but time, I actually wrote out "dot" and "dash" as I entered the code. I encounted one problem. I do not know Morse code. Anyway, I entered " javascript:void(prompt('',gApplication.getMap().getCenter())); " into my browser. At first there was this slight odor of melting plastic. Then I noticed smoke. So I shut off my computer. Then I thought, Hey Mike, why not go out and by a GPS system. I figured that had to be easier than trying to figure this out, though probably more difficult than advanced Geometry. So that's what I did. And I was right, it was easier.

Great tip! Did exactly what I needed! Not easy getting some locations to map into the Google maps plug-in for Wordpress.

Amazing and yet so simple, thanks for this tip!

I'm surprised Google don't just display this in an easy to see location for people.

Hi.

I tried to use the code but I failed. Perhaps I misunderstood what is "the location bar of your browser". Can you explain further what "location bar" is?
Thanks.

The location bar is the area up at the top of the browser where you can type in the location of a web address. For example, when you visit www.yahoo.com, you will notice an area up at the top that displays "http://www.yahoo.com". That area is the location bar.

Thank you very much for this. It works and really helpful. I have been looking for this from long time. Earlier, Google maps used to display the GPS position if you drag the location marker off the requested location on the map. I don't know why one fine day Google stopped displaying the GPS position on the map. It only displays the street name now.

"the location bar of your browser"... is the place on your web browser where you type the web address, web link, URL, or URI. It's >not< the place where you put the address that Google Maps finds or has already found for you.

Thanks for the tip! Very nice.
