GClientGeocoder is the class that we use to get the geocoder that get us the location. We will use getLatLng() method to get latitude/longitude of any location. Check the following code. var place = "New York";
geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
geocoder.getLatLng(place, function(point) {
if (!point) {
alert(place + " not found");
} else {
var info = "<h3>"+place+"</h3>Latitude: "+point.y+" Longitude:"+point.x;
var marker = new GMarker(point);
map.addOverlay(marker);
marker.openInfoWindowHtml(info);
}
});

What you describe is geocoding not reverse geocoding
Geocoding: process of finding associated geographic coordinates (often expressed as latitude and longitude) from other geographic data
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geocoding
Reverse geocoding: the process of back (reverse) coding of a point location (latitude, longitude) to a readable address or place name
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_geocoding
ops.. Thanks mackdk for pointing out the error. I will update the post and make it geocoding.
You might also want to edit the link to the example, it still says Reverse Geocoding.

Hi Viral Patel and everyone
Do you have any basic example code of Reverse geocoding? If you do, may I have it? I'm kinda new to this Reverse Geocoding stuff.
sincerely yours

I'm a total newbie and having trouble integrating your GeoCode code with the initialize function in your earlier tutorial. When a given page loads, I would like it to show the map for New York (or whatever is in that variable. Can you share a brief code example of how it would look?
Thanks very much!
