This is what I see on the page itself:
In one place (wrong):
var size = new GSize(640, 500);
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('map'), size);
In another (correct, but a different size...):
$(document).ready(
function(){
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('map'), {size:new
GSize(500,500)});
That may give different results in different browsers. Note that both
of those map variables are local to their respective functions.
