Hmm ok now i'm confused again :/ So i thought the problem was to do with that flag because i could reproduceably change that and have it go from working to not working but now i've stripped my test case back to just a standard Map (no subclassing) with the (supposedly) fixed marker and it still causes the issue.
More confusing is that, running inside our embedded mshtml control or in IE i get the problem but i dont get it in chrome (using the same html page and swf). The problem happens at the level that extra zoom levels are added into the zoom control. Eg: starting off at the world view / zoom level 1 all browsers look the same. And when i zoom in to level 17 they still look the same - the slider on the zoom control is now at the very top of the control on all three browsers. On chrome i can now keep zooming in and more levels are added to the zoom control whereas in IE (and our mshtml control) i cant get those extra levels.
