I just assembled this little test page, and you're absolutely right, it works: http://widersacher2.wi.funpic.de/directions.html
That's really strange, because it means there's something in my application that prevents the directions from being translated properly. Pasting my entire script here wouldn't do though, since it's really quite big and I now know that I don't have to come crying to Google about this. :) I'll debug it and post the results here when I'm done, maybe it'll also help the OP.
