Andrew, another question. If I go to http://maps.google.com/?output=html and type in the search box 32.8,35 I am getting back the following page http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&abauth=5517041f%3AdB5xXH6ojEeeb976IhMjSsVCGjI&output=html&q=32.8%2C35&btnG=Search+Maps
Is it ok if my server simply redirects to the above URL?
