I take it that "different maximum zoom levels" means that the default behavior from Google is to jump to a different zoom level, even though the slide bar was at a closer zoom the moment before? (I would've figured they'd leave it where it was so that I could see the cool low- level spots automatically (and manually zoom out if it isn't available). ) > > I'm trying to use getMaxZoomAtLatLng.

I was well aware of your code/ link interest :) In my map, enter a location like "Palau" in the second box. There's no visible response/action. Firebug cites "not a function." http://phoons.com/cgi/testmap.pl Thanks for your explanations above!
