    <script>
      function calculateRoute(from, to) {
        // Center initialized to Naples, Italy
        var myOptions = {
          zoom: 10,
          center: new google.maps.LatLng(40.84, 14.25),
          mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
        };
        // Draw the map
        var mapObject = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), myOptions);

        var directionsService = new google.maps.DirectionsService();
        var directionsRequest = {
          origin: from,
          destination: to,
          travelMode: google.maps.DirectionsTravelMode.DRIVING,
          unitSystem: google.maps.UnitSystem.METRIC
        };
        directionsService.route(
          directionsRequest,
          function(response, status)
          {
            if (status == google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK)

              new google.maps.DirectionsRenderer({
                map: mapObject,
                directions: response
              });
            }
            else
              $("#error").append("Unable to retrieve your route<br />");

You are creating a new Maps-instance each time you call calculateRoute()(you already be able to create multiple directions, but you will only see 1 route because you only see the last map). Create only a single Maps- instance:

 function calculateRoute(from, to) {
    //use only  a single maps-instance
    if(!window.mapObject){
      var myOptions = {
      zoom: 10,
      center: new google.maps.LatLng(40.84, 14.25),
      mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
    };
    // Draw the map
    mapObject = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), myOptions);
    // you also need only a single    DirectionsService-instance
    directionsService = new google.maps.DirectionsService();

    }

     var directionsRequest = {
        origin: from,
        destination: to,
        travelMode: google.maps.DirectionsTravelMode.DRIVING,
        unitSystem: google.maps.UnitSystem.METRIC
      };

    directionsService.route(
      directionsRequest,
      function(response, status)
      {
        if (status == google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK)
        {
          new google.maps.DirectionsRenderer({
            map: mapObject,
            directions: response
          });
        }
        else
          $("#error").append("Unable to retrieve your route<br />");
      }
    );
  }
