Ok, I'll try again.

>From the beginning. You start of with a key for the use of the API on
your website. This key is limited to a full HTTP_Referer... Which is
ridiculous because if you use the map on every page of your website
together with friendly URL's you have to get a new key for every page.
A key per domain is a logic solution to the problem. Since Google so
gladly suggest that we all use Friendly URL's. It's Google who made me
use those for getting better ranking results and now I discover that
their own product is in contradiction with this rule... I really can't
understand that.

So, my question is: What is the solution that my Friendly URL's work
with 1 key?

And like I already said: "Nasty solutions with questionmarks in the
URL is not a solution."

I hope you all can help me before I change my mind. Since I have a
deadline for this...

Thank you.
