Fixing it to make it work and removing all the bugs is 2 different things. ;)

Just a follow up for those who may have the same issue..

I looked into this for Andy and the main problem here was that the server was serving xml files as an application/octet-stream content, whereas it should have been text/xml.

Adjusted the servers conf file and added the proper mime type and it resolved the issue. A quick look at the javascript error log in my browser told me that xmlDoc had no properties. That was the red flag, so I validated the markers.xml file at http://validator.w3.org/ which quickly pointed out the error.

Not everyone has access to their server's conf file.

This is so long overdue. With all the progress in the mapping space, I cannot believe others have not stepped forward a long time ago. Boofo...I'm sure I speak for many but I can't wait to see what you come up with.

After spending a lot of time on this plug-in, I disabled the cron and now it works pretty well. The update was the problem since I didn't think of the server config solution.

Is there a way to get a map of just California in the USA? Our members are mostly in So.Cal.

OK i found a solution..about IE7 markers problems
The prob is : Marker Title
-Special caracter not reconized on IE7 like "?" for eg.
-Edit the user who put a special caracter on "Marker title" and replace it with a normal one (for eg "a" instead"?")
so you can see markers on IE.

If have try all solutions posted above and the only one who work is this one.. :(

Of course u can add a warning about that for prevent users on your template.

Waiting on a fix - thx for all

note : soz for my english coz i'm french noob ;) and use Firefox ^^

if you're waiting for a fix, you're going to be waiting for a while...

Thats good to hear and i look forward to it.

Thank you very much.
