I want a map with values inserted from the user and that values on a database

Below there is my code of "home.php". I want insert some values associated to an address, put them (find and put also the latitude and longitude of the address inserted from the user) in a database and in the map with a marker.

The problem is that when codeaddress() execute, it stops exactly before geocoder.geocode({'address': address},function(results, status) {..} and I'm not able to have the latitude and logitude to put in my database, and in the map there isn't the marker.

If I remove the line <form action="home.php" method="post" width="300px" height="300px"> (and of course the part of insertinDb() because now I haven't any $_POST value) codeaddress() works, and I have the marker and latitude and longitude values.

If I remove the call to codeaddress(), insertinDB() works (of course without insert lat and lng values).

Where am I wrong?Please ask me if something is not clear in the question.

Geocoding is async function. You getting redirected to home page before it gets result. You should submit form after data is received. To achieve this goal you can change

<input type="submit" name="invia"  onclick="check_form()"/>` 

to

<input type="button" name="invia"  onclick="check_form()"/>

and

<form action="home.php" method="post" width="300px" height="300px"> 

to

<form action="home.php" method="post" width="300px" height="300px" name='sform'>

and add document.sform.submit to the end of your if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) { part of code.
