    copied!<p>I'm trying to work out how to use the <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/v3/reference.html#DirectionsDistance" rel="noreferrer">Google Maps Directions Demo</a> to get the distance from the successful directions.</p> <p>This is the code I have so far:</p> <pre><code>var googleMaps = { // HTML Nodes fromInput: google_maps_from, toInput: google_maps_to, // API Objects dirService: new google.maps.DirectionsService(), dirRenderer: new google.maps.DirectionsRenderer(), map: null, showDirections: function(dirResult, dirStatus) { if (dirStatus != google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK) { //Here we'll handle the errors a bit better :P alert('Directions failed: ' + dirStatus); return; } else { //Get the distance here //onGDirectionsLoad(); } // Show directions googleMaps.dirRenderer.setMap(googleMaps.map); googleMaps.dirRenderer.setPanel(document.getElementById("directions")); googleMaps.dirRenderer.setDirections(dirResult); }, getSelectedTravelMode: function() { return google.maps.DirectionsTravelMode.DRIVING; }, getSelectedUnitSystem: function() { return google.maps.DirectionsUnitSystem.METRIC; }, getDirections: function() { var fromStr = googleMaps.fromInput; var toStr = googleMaps.toInput; var dirRequest = { origin: fromStr, destination: toStr, travelMode: googleMaps.getSelectedTravelMode(), unitSystem: googleMaps.getSelectedUnitSystem(), provideTripAlternatives: true }; googleMaps.dirService.route(dirRequest, googleMaps.showDirections); }, init: function() { googleMaps.map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), { zoom: 13, mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP }); // Show directions onload googleMaps.getDirections(); } }; // Onload handler to fire off the app. google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', googleMaps.init); </code></pre> <p>I could do this just fine in v2, just having trouble working out the v3 equivalent.</p>
