How do you do anything to it if you can't change the head or the body? > I am trying to add both my own JS and the Google Map JS dynamically to > the <head>, but then I get a Product Key error from Google (even > though it is on the same server).

Any ideas how/where I should be placing my > code ? IE is picky. It is really hard to guess what it is doing wrong given the information in your post. The symptom implies that when the map is rendered the browser hasn't determined the correct size for the div which contains it. I can't guess why that is with the information you have given (unless the map div is hidden when the page loads). Please follow the posting guidelines and post a link to your map that shows the problem.
