Google Map Markers Visible in IE, but not in Safari or FF

The programmers that did the mapping for my site, www.checkoutmytrip.com,
have bailed on me.... and I am stuck with this issue.

the maps are viewable in all browsers... but the markers are only
visible in IE.

Safari, Chrome, FF... none of them can see the markers :(

here is the code on the page that is calling up the map markers from
my db. I assume it's pulling them from the db... into an xml file...
then placing them on the map. I just can't figure out why ONLY IE can
handle the marker code.

Can anyone help?
