Hi.

Look here for some code that'll make your map 100% of it's IFRAME
size.

http://econym.org.uk/gmap/basic19.htm

Then if you have cross-browser problems you might need to create some
CSS styles to over-ride any browser specific defaults, basically set
margin, border and padding to zero pixels:

<style type="text/css">
*{
  border:0px;
  padding:0px;
  margin:0px;
}
</style>

You might want to make that style more specific than ALL border,
padding and margin properties but it'll nudge you in the right
direction.

Martin.
