1. You have white space at the top of the page before the DOCTYPE declaration. That tends to make IE ignore the DOCTYPE and use its "normal" rendering mode (quirks mode) which is less standards compliant. 2. You don't have the IE-7 compatibility flag set. I have seen posts that imply that even Microsoft's own maps don't work in IE8 without that set. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288325(VS.85).aspx 3. You might want to take a pass at making your page valid html: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://nasansb.enursing.com.au/viewMap.aspx%3Fsys%3DeNurs%26c%3D491%26l%3DUNKNOWN&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator/1.654 I don't see anything on there that is obvious, but most of the "errors" listed are easy to fix and make it hard to see if there is anything there that would matter to the API (or IE). -- Larry --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
