Ok crisis averted - found a solution.

Seems to be a bit of an obscure bug with Google Maps API.
If the GET request originates from an event fired by an HTML element
that is not an INPUT, in this case an IMG encased in <A> tags, then
Google Maps API returns the 500 error. After i had changed the HTML so
rather than having the onclick event of an IMG encased in <A> tags
start off the GET request, the button is now an <input type="image">
within a FORM, and it's onclick starts the GET request process.

Hope this helps someone else.
