I'm not sure what you mean by "pan and zoom to the overlays", but if you want to "autozoom" so that the selected overlay "best" fits in the viewport, you will probably have to use a third party GGeoXml substitute. GGeoXml does not expose the polygons, these third party parsers do: GeoXml http://www.dyasdesigns.com/geoxml/ EGeoXml http://econym.org.uk/gmap/egeoxml.htm -- Larry > > On Nov 20, 9:30 pm, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > > > On Nov 20, 12:19 pm, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > > wrote: > > > > On Nov 20, 11:34 am, anywozhere <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Thanks very much Larry.
