Hi,
You could write your own proxy to pass the request the for the
google map images via your own server.
Should be fairly simple in PHP / ASP.
Then it would look like the images game from your own server and you
would not have Cross domain problems.

hello,
yes, I guess it uses the script to get the api key. I am using the gmap
component to load some maps in flash, and I had some problems, because
flash
player doesn't allow me to access the maps as bitmaps. I posted the
problem
in afcomponents forum, and the answer can be useful for you:
"The problem lies in Flash Sandbox Security model. You can't access
bitmap
data of external loaded images. This can be fixed with crossdomain.xml
file
that should be put on the G-server and allow access to your server..."
my answer:
"thanks for the answer. Would it be a problem to put a crossdomain.xml
file
at www.afcomponents.com, so this kind of problem would be fixed?
I got a API Key, so I could access the images through my server but,
in this
case, I would have to re-write the gateway that is at AFC server,
written in
ASP. That is what I could understand: the .swf loads the images from AFC
server, that uses a ASP gateway to access Google Maps. Am I right? "
"Nope, unfortunately this is not the way it works. The tile images are
loaded DIRECTLY from the G-servers. Out server is used for loading the
copyright information only. The only solution here will be a
crossdomain.xmlfile on G-server which is not possible..."
I hope this is useful,
andrei

Hi
Has anyone used the free gmaps component from afcomponents.com?
I noticed that the component calls a php script on the afcomponent site.
Does anyone know the purpose of this?
I'm assuming its simply a way to bypass the need for individual api
keys.
