L.Map

The central class of the API — it is used to create a map on a page and manipulate it.

Usage example

// initialize the map on the "map" div with a given center and zoom 
var map = new L.Map('map', {
	center: new L.LatLng(51.505, -0.09), 
	zoom: 13
});

// create a CloudMade tile layer
var cloudmadeUrl = 'http://{s}.tile.cloudmade.com/YOUR-API-KEY/997/256/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',
	cloudmade = new L.TileLayer(cloudmadeUrl, {maxZoom: 18});

// add the CloudMade layer to the map
map.addLayer(cloudmade);

popup.setLatLng(latlng);
popup.setContent(popupContent);

map.openPopup(popup);
