Hi

I'm starting off try to create a google map which will eventually
track people via address brought in from a spreadsheet (or something
similar).

So Came to the dicsussion and found the tutorial.
http://code.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=74725&topic=11364

The first Section 1:1 talks of Google Pages, which is now out of date,
as I was fowarded to Google Sites.

Section 2:3 Says that when you get the API Key, there is sample HTML
you can use to get you started. Which isn't present.

Finally after playing around i think i have something
"<!DOCTYPE html "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/
>
    <title>Google Maps JavaScript API Example</title>

                <script

src="http://maps.google.com/maps?
file=api&amp;v=2&amp;sensor=true_or_false&amp;key=ABQIAAAAU_J4bQupu1EDSKI3mJdjNRTHkHZkyh1ob_-
cT3srB3jeEAhmNxTUW9W0DE_zifA_FM

ZcNWqamCCGmw" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">

    function initialize() {
      if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
        var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
        map.setCenter(new GLatLng(54.800685,-2.197266), 13);
        map.setUIToDefault();
      }
    }

    </script>
  </head>
  <body onload="initialize()" onunload="GUnload()">
    <div id="map_canvas" style="width: 500px; height: 300px"></div>
  </body>
</html>"

And try to put the html into my google site and I get "Your HTML
either contains unsafe tags (iframe, embed, styles, script) or extra
attributes. They will be removed when the page is viewed."

So can anyone help me get started so I can learn.

Is there an alternative to the google pages to load up the html and
start learning.
OR maybe a tutorial which isn't out of date??

Cheers (in advance)
