This was a fairly straight-forward use of the Google Maps API and jQuery, but with a few interesting constraints. Google Map’s standard popup boxes had to be replaced with the popup you see pictured for branding purposes, and the coordination between clicking on a search result and zooming in on the marker had to be smooth and seamless. Finally, unlike most store finders, this one allows you to enter any type of location that is accepted by google maps (zip code, city, or street address) making a simpler user interface and more room for unexpected user input.
