Should also say, http://www.gmapify.fr/Projects/Shared/WorldCountriesAsPolylines.zip
I've tried using there encoded polylines, and had mixed results. Can get Singapore working, but nothing else. Based on this example; http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/encodedpolygon/encodedpolygon.htm Anyone got some working code for that??? Why doesn't Google embed a function to make colouring countries a simple boolean value? Is it because of the political danger of the borders of India/Pakistan, Israel, Tibet etc??? Thanks Spanky.
