That's great, thanks. I guessed it was something like that. Unfortunately I cannot show you my map as it is on a private network.
My code however is here: http://yourpaste.net/1296/ So I need the following line: searcher.setQueryAddition('Football Ground'); Do I also need the lines: <script src="http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/localsearch/ gmlocalsearch.js" type="text/javascript"></script> @import url("http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/localsearch/ gmlocalsearch.css"); var lcs = new google.maps.LocalSearch(); map.addControl(new google.maps.LocalSearch()); you my guess I'm new to JavaScript..... I'm a C++ man really!
