NAME

Simple Adddress App

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple address app, utilizing Google Maps, AJAX, and REST. The REST side is available for download also.

GOOGLE MAP API KEY

Get a Google Map API key.

If you are running on a public server, generate an API key and set Key Restriction to "HTTP referrers". This API key works on browser clients (exactly what we need). On this API key, add the URL that your web page will originate from, e.g. http://sjsutech.com/simple_address_client/*

If you are running on a localhost, you can use a single API key for both browser and server. When you generate your API key, set Key restriction to "None".

INSTALL
