.slice() is used on Strings, and your point is a GLatLng(). alert forces the point to be returned as a String, but .slice() doesn't do that. Why not use what is documented? http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/reference.html#GLatLng point.toUrlValue(4) or whatever. You can specify any number: the default is 6.
