Converting html and javascript into PL/SQL procedure

AndyindoMar 23 2012 — edited May 5 2012
Hi, I'm trying to incorporate google maps into my apex report. I've managed to get it working with version3 of the API, when I call it in HTML as a header, however I need to add markers from a table, so I need to wrap it up in PL/SQL and loop through. However when I try and wrap the basic HTML code it fails to work as a PL/SQL region.
Original HTML code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
    <style type="text/css">
      html { height: 100% }
      body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0 }
      #map_canvas { height: 100% }
    </style>
    <script type="text/javascript"
      src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyA387n7efUcis5emZlSNcOmwwZkhsFW8Qc&sensor=false">
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      function initialize() {
        var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.890542, 150.274856);
          var myOptions = {
          center: new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644),
          zoom: 8,
          mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
        };
        var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
            myOptions);
  var image = 'http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/images/beachflag.png';
  var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.890542, 150.274856);
  var beachMarker = new google.maps.Marker({
    position: latLng,
    map: map,
    icon: image
  });
  
  var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
      position: new google.maps.LatLng(-34.890542, 150.474856),
      map: map
    });
    
      }
    </script>
  </head>
  <body onload="initialize()">
    <div id="map_canvas" style="width:100%; height:100%"></div>
  </BODY>
</html>
Wrapped in PL/SQL and placed into an PL/SQL region on the same page.
htp.print('<html>');
  htp.print('<head>');
    htp.print('<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />');
    htp.print('<style type="text/css">');
      htp.print('html { height: 100% }');
      htp.print('body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0 }');
      htp.print('#map_canvas { height: 100% }');
    htp.print('</style>');
    htp.print('<script type="text/javascript"');
      htp.print('src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyA387n7efUcis5emZlSNcOmwwZkhsFW8Qc&sensor=false">');
    htp.print('</script>');
    htp.print('<script type="text/javascript">');
      htp.print('function initialize() {');
        htp.print('var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.890542, 150.274856);');
          htp.print('var myOptions = {');
          htp.print('center: new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644),');
          htp.print('zoom: 8,');
          htp.print('mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP');
        htp.print('};');
        htp.print('var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),');
            htp.print('myOptions);');
  htp.print('var image = 'http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/images/beachflag.png';');
  htp.print('var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.890542, 150.274856);');
  htp.print('var beachMarker = new google.maps.Marker({');
    htp.print('position: latLng,');
    htp.print('map: map,');
    htp.print('icon: image');
  htp.print('});');
htp.print('  ');
  htp.print('var marker = new google.maps.Marker({');
      htp.print('position: new google.maps.LatLng(-34.890542, 150.474856),');
      htp.print('map: map');
    htp.print('});');
htp.print('    ');
      htp.print('}');
    htp.print('</script>');
  htp.print('</head>');
  htp.print('<body onload="initialize()">');
    htp.print('<div id="map_canvas" style="width:100%; height:100%"></div>');
  htp.print('</BODY>');
htp.print('</html>');
Anyone have any ideas?
