Update:

We've managed to fix the WUG xml importation problem we were having (creating 
empty maps).  Seems there was an editor error which was removing a specific set 
of brackets.  

That fixed, however, we're still having a problem.  The import works fine in that it 
creates the specified icons, and populates them with the information we provide via 
a script....except......it fails to import the following into the Notes field (excerpt 
from 
Notes section of xml file):

<Notes>
<html><head>
</head>
<body>
<div ID="textDiv">
 <IFRAME 
SRC="http://x.x.x.x/xxxxx/viewconstituentdetails.php?siteid=SITE00000021203"; 
NAME="dboutput" SCROLLING="Auto" WIDTH="800" HEIGHT="500" 
MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" FRAMEBORDER="No">
</IFRAME>
</div>
</body>
</html>
</Notes>

It's worth noting that the code above is exactly the same as that which was 
exported from WUG except for the site# which is generated by an outside script 
prior to rebuilding the code for import.  Quite literally though, with respect to the 
Notes field, it only replaces the site# we had in our export with its own.  Other than 
that, it's exactly the same as WUG's export for this section.

Any reason(s) why this isn't importing?

Thanks.

Dave
