Thanks for your input Larry, In response...
1. The standard embed code doesn't work from within my client's antiquated IT network, so I can't show you an example, but they see the "Forbidden Your client does not have permission to get URL..." error message. Tested elsewhere and the map renders with no problems. The systems guy there reckons its to do with them using a proxy server. It may well be worth pursuing a change at their end since my efforts on this are becoming time consuming. 2. I can recreate the map, but I have 30+ locations and details to do this for. The client will be updating google maps with new locations and changes, so it seems to make sense to hook into those details which are already on google maps. I hadn't considered 3 but had read about 4 and both seem like possibilites. What I was hoping for was something automagic like... addOverlay(businessidongooglemaps) but I guess this doesn't exist at present. cheers Rich > There isn't cut and past code to do that.
