            var mapOptions = { credentials: key, mapTypeId: Microsoft.Maps.MapTypeId.road, zoom: 5 }

            }

            function hideInfobox(e) {

            function addMarker() {
                var marker = new Microsoft.Maps.Pushpin(new Microsoft.Maps.Location(20.296059, 85.824539), { color: 'green' });

                infobox = new Microsoft.Maps.Infobox(marker.getLocation(), {
                    visible: false
                });

                marker.metadata = {
                    id: 1,
                    title: 'Bhubaneswar',
                    description: 'Bhubaneswar, Odisha'
                };

                Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(marker, 'mouseout', hideInfobox);
                Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(marker, 'mouseover', showInfobox);

                infobox.setMap(map);
                map.entities.push(marker);
                marker.setOptions({ enableHoverStyle: true });
            };

    </script>

<body onload="GetMap();">
    <div id="myMap" style='position: relative; width: 600px; height: 800px;'></div>
 <input type="button" value="Show Points" onclick="addMarker();" />
    <form id="form1" runat="server">

        </form>
</body>
</html>

This is my code of Webform1.aspx. My Map is loaded successfully but no marker is shown on clicking the Show Points button. In the console, I am getting the following error on page load

WebForm1.aspx:35 Uncaught ReferenceError: Microsoft is not defined
    at addMarker (WebForm1.aspx:35)
    at WebForm1.aspx:77
and on clicking show points button, I am getting the following error.
Uncaught ReferenceError: map is not defined
    at addMarker (WebForm1.aspx:50)
    at HTMLInputElement.onclick (WebForm1.aspx:62)

I want to show a map on my webform with some points marked on the map. The latitude and longitude for those points are supposed to come from the database.

Answer 1

Welcome to stack overflow. Your map loading is async defer so there's no guarantee that the namespace Microsoft is available when its called in your function:

<body onload="GetMap();">

Use the callback you have defined in the script include tag:

loadMapScenario

This will run when the Microsoft js lib is finished loading.
