All I get on that page is:
"Your browser doesn't support geolocation. Are you stoned?"
And it puts me in Siberia...
If I zoom out enough I can see your markers.
I would suggest moving your downloadUrl call into your initialize
function as it depends on the map variable being initialized to add
the markers and your longer main page will call the initialize
function later (possibly after the marker data has been returned from
the server).
