Any Idea what is wrong?
EDIT: Got it to work after I set the whole server path to the file into VBGooglemap.php to specify the markers.xml location.
Unfortunatly Google does not have detailed maps about europe.
That is making this hack nearly impossible to use for me because I can?t find my city NOR can I enter long and lat by hand (Suggestion!! *hint* *hint* )

http://earth-info.nga.mil/gns/html/cntry_files.html this one has about all zipcodes and locations in the world except US.

Google is working on detailed Europe maps.

You can edit the googlemap templates and change the <input text> for longitude an lattitude. Just remove to readonly's that are in there and your users can put it in themselves.
I think there are 4 occurences in total in VBGooglemap_display_yourlocation VBGooglemap_set_yourlocation.

After that you should be able to enter the data manually and keep the drag function.
