Hi. If i understand your question then i think you could create a hidden form field.
Once you have the location (from map 'a') populate the hidden form field with the formatted lat and lng: // myLatLng assumed to be a LatLng object that's already defined in your code document.forms.myForm.latlng.value=myLatLng.toUrlValue(); A simple form: <form id="myForm"> <input type="hidden" name="latlng" /> </form> That'll leave your createxml.php script to parse the POST or GET latlng value which will be a comma separated string: 'lat,lng'. http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/reference.html#LatLng Martin.
