There you go. Mapdev, all your customers need to do is use the same code as Rossko's page and it will work.
Regarding the $_SERVER and $_REQUEST variables, those are leading you astray. If your customer slurps up the HTML/JavaScript code from your web service and then sends that code to the browser *as part of their own page*, then the request to your server is irrelevant. The API key will be validated against the domain *in the browser*. So putting on my best Sherlock Holmes hat, I'll hazard a guess: If your customer is indeed using an iframe, then what they are doing is loading the iframe SRC from *their* domain, not yours - and then merging your code into that iframe page in their domain. That won't work with your API key. They would have to get a key of their own (or you would) for their domain. Rossko's example loads the iframe SRC directly from *your* domain. Look at the <iframe> tag: <iframe height="600" width="800" src="http://diffent.com/map/demo9.html"; ></iframe> As you can see, the src attribute points to your HTML page. This is really no different from loading your page directly in the browser: http://diffent.com/map/demo9.html and that's why it works. The secret sauce for making your API key work in your customer's site is not "being in an IFRAME", it is "loading directly into the browser from your domain". Whether that's in an IFRAME or as a standalone page makes no difference. -Mike On Wed, Jul 14, 2010 at 11:47 AM, Rossko <ros...@culzean.clara.co.uk> wrote: > > So I think I am going to have the users send their own map key to my > > service and see if that works.
