thanks Rossko and Pil for your replies.

I've uplaoded the html file with the javascript, that I have worked on
so far: www.iborough.co.uk/tourfilter.html

The original Mapplets XML file that I am trying to work on is here:
http://www.iborough.co.uk/example_5_3_map_concert_data.xml

so far I have managed to include the loadmap function. The other
things involve alot more Javascript. I think it's the following
section that needs to be edited for it to start working:

        // find the proper zoom level for the bounds
        // and center the map so that all of the markers are visible
        map.getBoundsZoomLevelAsync(bounds, function(level) {
                map.setCenter(bounds.getCenter());
                map.setZoom(level);

                // don't render the list until we've centered the map
                _gel("content").innerHTML = displayHTML;
                _gel("status").innerHTML = "Done loading concert data";
        });

        // resize the mapplet window height
        _IG_AdjustIFrameHeight();
}

function loadData(city) {

        // make sure a city has been selected
        if (city == "")
                return;

        var url = "http://www.iborough.co.uk/xml/"; + city + ".xml";

        // update the status field and clear out anything we have in
'content'
        _gel("status").innerHTML = "loading...";
        _gel("content").innerHTML = "";

        // fetch the XML data from the url
        _IG_FetchXmlContent(url, _IG_Callback(handleFetchContent, city));
}


I have read that Google Maps API calls are synchronous wheres
communication between Mapplet and map is asynchronous. So I will have
to somehow change the getBoundsZoomLevelAsync call.

Also, in the loadData function, _IG_FetchXmlContent(url, _IG_Callback
(handleFetchContent, city)); has been used to retrieve the remote
data, but with Google Maps API, I have to use GDownloadURL and GXml.

Any help? Thanks, Yasir
