I hate to be a pain but...
Would it be possible to bypass the read in data from xml file and just
read in a hardcoded list within the script (I would generate the list
with php from the database)?
This would save the XML file creation and the need for the
downloadxml.js
I had hacked the code in the V2 example where the points are inserted
but can't seem to get it working with the V3 code. This is what I did
then, with the {stuff} generated from the database:
var point = new GLatLng({lat},{lon});
var marker = createMarker(point,"{title}","<strong>{title}</
strong><br><a href='{link_address}'>Full details</a>");
map.addOverlay(marker);
Example here:
