Sure. Currently, if a user is experiencing the overviewMap problem, or if they want to load a specific version of Google Maps API for some reason, then they should load the map extension in the following way:
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2.94&key=ABQIAAAAz-sxVZ9Q8vGMNbjHT7XP_BSFIzy51XN1kTDMwnH19TBrp1QWUhSc9tZ1e7u9UzisFlsGBEVkFg1adA"; type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/map/map-extension.js"; type="text/javascript"></script> Ideally, it would be nice to include the GM API version in the map-extension.js call, alleviating the need for the above in many cases. They call would be <script src="http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/map/map-extension.js?gmapi=2.94&gmapkey=ABQIAAAAz-sxVZ9Q8vGMNbjHT7XP_BSFIzy51XN1kTDMwnH19TBrp1QWUhSc9tZ1e7u9UzisFlsGBEVkFg1adA"; type="text/javascript"></script> if gmapi param not included, default to v=2 if gmapkey param not included, then ignore if gmapi param exists or not and look for GMap2 loaded by user - John ************************************************** John Callahan Geospatial Application Developer Delaware Geological Survey, University of Delaware 227 Academy St, Newark DE 19716-7501 Tel: (302) 831-3584 Email: [email protected] http://www.dgs.udel.edu ************************************************** David wrote: > John: > > can you please show entire script code for > > <script src="http://maps.google.com/maps? > file=api&v=2.94&key=...key..." type="text/javascript"></script> > <script src="http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/ > map/map-extens..." type="text/javascript"></script> > > with a line break so that it shows all of the characters and not > ellipsis?
