IE9 may support CANVAS or SVG or both but it is not even out of beta. IE8, IE7 & IE6 will not diasppear anytime soon. I choose CANVAS because one CANVAS element can contain an unlimited number of markers. It is just pixels. With DIVs, each marker requires its own DIV. Eventually, it may be too many DIVs for the browser. Also, DIVs are essentially rectangular. Rounded corners are an option in some browsers. Perhaps Internet Explorer could use DIVS for small markers & VML for large markers. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
