Thank you for this mod!
I cannot get the placemarks added in Google Maps to show on the map in the forum. Please help.

Try searching for Pictured Rocks, MI, or just try one of the URL's that I've posted.

Placemarks wont work with this code.

You would need a total Modification for this , plus your own api key i suspect.

Please click INSTALLED

Mate I dunno what you are doing wrong, but works for me. I think the best bet is to remove the hack.

I have just posted on your forum, Pictured Rocks MI

Works fine mate.

Whenever you do it, you get some extra stuff at the end of the URL that my URL's above do not have. That is the difference.

[TimberFloorAu]

what url are you using for Google Maps

Ok seems to be that Firefox gives the ACCURATE version. Weird huh !!!

Search for Pictured Rocks MI


Internet Explorer 

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=pictured+rocks+mi&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=36.094886,71.894531&ie=UTF8&hq=pictured+rocks+mi&hnear=Pictured+Rocks+National+Lakeshore,+Grand+Marais,+MI+49839&z=10

Firefox

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=pictured+rocks+mi&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=36.642161,72.861328&ie=UTF8&hq=pictured+rocks+mi&hnear=Pictured+Rocks+National+Lakeshore,+Grand+Marais,+MI+49839&t=h&z=10


Google Chrome

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=pictured+rocks+mi&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=45.063105,68.818359&ie=UTF8&hq=pictured+rocks+mi&hnear=Pictured+Rocks+National+Lakeshore,+Grand+Marais,+MI+49839&z=10

Note in FF the last part of the code &t=h is being dropped by CHrome and IE

Edit one of your posts add the code I have posted for FF and save, see if that fixes it.

I'm actually using FireFox I go to http://maps.google.com/ to get my maps.
