I have a similar problem getting a map to accept a URL parameter. Do
you need to use cookies to pass the URL parameters? Is it possible to
just assign a variable to the $_GET command in the page that calls the
map and then call the kml generating php script using the URL with ?
parameter = $variable at the end? 
http://www.integratedstatistics.com/ejosephs/v2pages/MapCachalot3.php
makes a php script query the database and plot the right voyage, but
only if I add the actual voyageID (the parameter I would like to pass
to the page) as the URL parameter (?voyageccc=12950).  It doesn't work
if I add ?voyageccc=$voyage.  I have lots of whaling voyages I want to
plot on user input but I am new to using the Maps API (and most other
programming!).  I tried the cookie approach outlined above, but
couldn't get that to work either. I would appreciate being pointed in
the right direction.
Thanks!
