I was using the JIS charset in order to prevent those sort of
problems. The page is actually for a Japanese site.

I did seem to of sorted it out though. I simply removed the { } that
were around the destination address.
Duh! I figured they were needed for some sort of 'magical' code to
work.



var content =
'<div id="mytext" ><a href="http://www.google.co.jp/maps?
saddr={start_address}&daddr=大泉いちご園 @36.24237,139.424057">Linky</a></
div>';
