Hi everyone,

My map displays correctly when viewed in Google Maps:
http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&oe=UTF8&num=200&start=185&msa=0&msid=103653241930020329026.0004562e12d0f4b4f0796&ll=5.217778,-126.439971&spn=173.077154,360&z=1

When viewed on my website using the API it displays differently:
http://www.vent5.com/Vent5/Route_files/widget1_markup.html

I have figured out that the difference occurs where there are sharp
angles (corners) in lines on My Map.  For example, look at one of the
green lines in Australia.  Displayed with the API they are incorrectly
long, but in My Maps they display correctly.  Zoom-in on the corner in
the API and you will see how the corner stays the same length at all
zoom levels.  The corner looks okay zoomed-in, but absurdly long
zoomed-out.  When zoomed-out all the way the corner stretches across
Australia.

I have noticed similar occurrences with other people's maps using the
API.  Does anyone know why there is a difference between displaying
the map in My Maps, and displaying the map with the API?  Thanks in
advance.
