I certainly don't mind learning but this frankly over my head. I do well to make adjustments in existing code as well as minor adaptations. I have looked all over for some examples on Google and otherwise. My mini map is used here; http://basslakeca.com/marcslistings.html I had to remove the controls as they were huge on a small map. I also hope to add many more properties so the size of the icon is important or they will overlap so you can see shinking everything is has a value. I use "Iframe" for individual maps but they are much bigger.
If you can lead me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
