[R] error with geomap in googleVis

[Gesmann, Markus]

Hi all,

This issue occurs with googleVis 0.2.4 and RJSONIO > 0.7.1.
Version 0.2.5 of the googleVis package has been uploaded to CRAN two
days ago and should have fixed this issue.
Can you please try to update to that version, e.g. from
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/googleVis/

Further version 0.2.5 provides new interfaces to more interactive Google
charts:
 - gvisLineChart
 - gvisBarChart
 - gvisColumnChart
 - gvisAreaChart
 - gvisScatterChart
 - gvisPieChart
 - gvisGauge
 - gvisOrgChart
 - gvisIntensityMap 

Additionally a new demo 'AnimatedGeoMap' has been added which shows how
a Geo Map can be animated with additional JavaScript.  Thanks to Manoj
Ananthapadmanabhan and Anand Ramalingam, who provided the idea and
initial code.

For more information and examples see:

I hope this helps

Markus

I had never used this until yesterday but it seems to generate html.
I didn't manage to get a chart to display but if you are familiar with
this package and html perhaps you could look at map1$html and see if
anything is obvious. One great thing about html/js is that it is human
readable and you can integrate it well with other page material without
much in the way of special tools.
