IE 6 and some versions* of IE 8 display only a single tile of the map. It seems to be taking the tile that would normally be below and to the right of the div, and putting it in the upper left. The overview map box turns up in the upper left corner outside of the div. If you resize the browser window, it fills in the rest of the map, but the position is still wrong. This problem only cropped up recently - the pages had been working fine as of early December, leading me to think something might have changed on the Google Maps API.
Weirdly, this main map works fine: http://www.cesd.umass.edu/twi/TWI_Projects/Virtual_Tours/index.html While this one, and others linked to from the main map, have the problem. http://www.cesd.umass.edu/twi/TWI_Projects/Virtual_Tours/The_North_Country/index.html The javascript, html and css look essentially the same to me. But their must be some little discrepancy which is triggering the behavior in IE. I've seen some posts here describing similar problems, where the solution is to give the containing div a size and to be sure to call the map load function after the rest of the page has loaded. In this case, the map size is set via css and the load function is called at the bottom of the page. In any case, this is true for both the working and non-working pages. Specifically, IE 8.0.6001.18702 works; IE 8.0.6001.18702IC does not, both on XP. Thank you for any insights.
