The "Automatically parse links in text" option ALWAYS screws up the HTML code on the map page whenever the post edit box is loaded (it's too late even if you turn it off before saving the edit). You can either disable the function in the Vb Admin (not very convenient for users) or re-paste the Google map code into a post during editing.

If I use your code exactly as is it returns "Wrong Map URL..." every time. I've placed the code on a this page with the correct Google map code so you can view and debug the source (it doesn't seem to recognise the first search string?). Out of desperation, I modified the code to simplify it and tested it on this other page with exactly the same Google code and it seems to work OK (I've removed a couple of tests and avoided using ") It's probably full of security holes as I'm no programmer :)

Just one small thing, does someone here knows an instrution to include on the code to remove the hyperlinks from Google Maps before the gmap instruction ?

I'll tell you why, on my board I have to use "parse links automaticaly" so when I past the Google Map link it comes with the links and if I use it with the link parsed the BB Code doesn't work, so I have to remove the hyperlink manually. As most my users are hard to teach this sequence I was wondering about this solution to be inside of gmap BBCode it self.

This is exactly what I tried to describe. The point is using the standar editor really sucks and switching from standard do enhanced WYSIWYG also. The only "solution" I've found at this moment is never use quick reply editor, always Go Advanced, past Google link, select it all, click on Remove Links and after that use Google Maps BBcode.

If we had a string before this BBcode to remove the links from it would solve this issue at all.

Vb doesn't just add [url .. etc to the map code, it also re-arranges the parameters inside the <iframe..> block. I'm afraid I've had to give up on this one unless someone knows how to fix it - disabling the WYSIWYG editor or the automatic link parsing isn't an option for our users

I'll try to fix it, it seems possible...

Thanks all for testing
