Anybody know why my map isn't working on this page:

http://www.ktravisj.com/lulu/contactus.php

It's supposed to be on the bottom, in the little area just to the right of "Directions From Houston".

What I did was copy/paste the same object that I use on this page (which is working):

http://willbanksmetals.com/contact.php

But it is not working over here on

http://www.ktravisj.com/lulu/contactus.php

..help..?

The address I'm trying to do for the map is:

5205 Avenue U
Galveston
Texas 77551

And when I go to this website and plug in those values:

http://www.latlong.net/convert-address-to-lat-long.html

I get these coordinates:

Latitude - 29.274581
Longitude - -94.820042

And I plugged these into the extension in the appropriate spots..?

It would be really great if I could simply add the link to a map I've already made (or a link to a specific listing in Google )from within Google and use your extension to embed the map with w3c compliant code. is this possible? I've played a little bit with it and it doesn't seem to like the link I've added (cannot be viewed in iframe it says). The code supplied by Google is not w3c compliant but works non-the-less. Just a thought. Thank you for your time.

The code is complient, the reason that you are getting the so called errors is most likely due to that you are the HTML 5 doctype. You should note that the HTML 5 testing in W3C is still experimental so you should expect errors till it is fully supported by all the main browsers.

When the maps is zoomed, the point position is moved from original position to wrong position. The difference is according to zoom, some meter - hundert meters. What i made wrong?

Hi BaconFries,

Can you post a manual download link? My Extension Manager is not working. I uninstalled the extension expecting to download it again to get the pdf. Instead, it has vanished. I cannot make it appear again as available no matter how many times I have updated the extension list and restarted wb9.43.

Thanks Much!!! NEVERMIND. I found it on an old drive. Wow, sometimes saving those things pays off.

thanks

Thank you very much BaconFries. I did look for your email. I'm afraid it probably was lost with a hard drive recently (like few days ago). I generally use an iMac for email and it was a great system until the drive died. (Did you know you have to pull the glass to get to that sucker?)

Anyway, I am waiting on the correct drive and other parts. I hope I can recover it as it is too expensive to buy another one (and not really worth it). But since I had deleted emails from server, that drive is the only cache of emails from way back.

If you hear from me in next week, you will know I was successful. If not, please email me again. Do you still have my email address? If not, I will post it here long enough for you to get it and then remove.

But once again, thanks for the extension. Is this an upgrade from the older model I have???

Thanks!!!

Bry the Translated version is no longer supported anymore. The version here now use Google APIv3 script this version does not require a API code as at the original release google had decided that it was not required unlike previous version using Google APIv2. I did look at your map and code from the url you provided in your other thread and it use the same code/script as this version so you will now be able to read the enclosed PDF to find out moreon how to use. Right take care again I am needing to try and catch some sleep so I am going to close. If you need any hr=elp regarding the extension please post in this thread were I will try and answer asap...

Hi Bacon, Installing your latest version will not show up in the extension manager or list even though the files have been installed into the extension folder, I am using WB9.4.3. If I copy the old version 1.1.0.4 back to the extension folder it will show up again.

Thank you very much BaconFries. I using latest version WWB 9.4.3 and have instaled previous version 3.1.1.0 09/20/2013. But I don`t see this update in Extension Manager :(
UPDATE: After uninstalling old version i see this now and can be installed - I get the message "Succesfully installed!".
googlemapsv3.jpg, googlemapsv3.pdf and googlemapsv3.xwb files exist in extension directory.
But I don`t see Google Maps in Extension, when i run again Extension manager, Gogle Maps is possible install again.
When I made this, I got again the message "Succesfully installed!".
Maybe problem is, that downloaded googlemapsv3.zip contains source file googlemapsv3.xwb, not compiled googlemapsv3.wbx.
