...using the Google API. "We" aren't Google. Well, Pamela is, but the rest of us aren't. > I've pasted > our PHP and the load function that is supposed to do the > aforementioned details.

No. All PHP is is a server-side language which creates the HTML and Javascript used by the API. Whether that code is created dynamically by PHP or ASP or read from a plain flat file is immaterial. > I've noticed that <? ?> (PHP tags) do not seem to show up as the > same color as they do in other parts of the HTML on my text editor. That's because your text editor recognises them as PHP tags. > Any help you can provide us with would be absolutely amazing. I haven't bothered quoting the code, but if that is really what you have, you should end up with a PHP error because the quote marks are all over the place. If you don't end up with a PHP error, then looking at the Javascript errors or the resulting HTML in your browser should provide a clue as to what's going on. You haven't given us a link to see that (see the posting guidelines). The best way of writing code like this, in my experience, is to write the statements using actual literal numbers or addresses instead of your PHP variables. Test it. Then replace the numbers and strings with the PHP which will insert the values in the right place. Using the shorthand <?= for <?echo [provided your server supports it] may make your code more readable. Are you really at Harvard?
