Hi Brian,
I assume you are trying to wait until the input element in your form exists,
so you can set the focus to it?
The whenReady() code uses document.getElementById(), but your input element
has no id attribute. It does have:
name="data"
But getElementById() requres an id attribute. You can add:
id="data"
to the input element (in addition to the name="data" and everything else
that's there now) to fix that.

There's no reason why you would need to change the word "element" in that
code. It's just a variable name with no significance to it.

// == creates a draggable marker with an input form ==
function createInputMarker(point,ID) {
if(!noMore){
var marker = new GMarker(point,{draggable:true, icon:G_START_ICON});
marker.ID = ID + 0;
GEvent.addListener(marker, "click", function() {
lastmarker = marker;
marker.openInfoWindowHtml(iwform);
whenReady( 'data', function( marker) {
marker.focus();
});
});
noMore = true;
map.addOverlay(marker);
marker.openInfoWindowHtml(iwform);
whenReady( 'data', function( marker) {
marker.focus();
});
lastmarker=marker;
return marker;
}
}
