Hi, I don't think I have been quite clear with what I am trying to do. I do not want search results to display in the map at all. Search results should appear as they would do normally after executing a Google Custom Search (GCS) (usually opens a new tab in the browser). All I want to do is to display my ready made GCS box WITHIN the ready made Google Map that I want to appear. It is purely for ease of finding the search box. I can already embed my Google Map (that I have already made) onto my web page using the code provided by Google Maps in their link box. I can also embed my GCS box on my web page but they appear one under the other, whereas I want the GCS box to appear WITHIN the frame of the map. Other than that I do not want the map to do anything except appear exactly as I have already made in Google Maps, I do not want it to change in any way, except to have the GCS box within the frame of the map.
