Hello Matt,

Thanks for this. It seems I am having exactly the same problem but I don't think I have as good an understanding of Manila/Frontier to make the modifications you suggest?

I have successfully implemented google maps in a 'normal' apache served [hosted] environment, but I am keen to get my own manila/frontier configuration to run some maps.

When I got my API KEY I made a few changes.

1. I changed the Template and added the DOCTYPE and HEAD info, including the script source.

I added this

 &lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN&quot; &quot;http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd&quot;&gt;
 &lt;html xmlns=&quot;http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml&quot;&gt;

and this to my template

 &lt;head&gt;
 &lt;title&gt;Google Maps JavaScript API Example - simple&lt;/title&gt;
 &lt;script src=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&amp;v=1&amp;key=abcdefg&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
 &lt;/head&gt;

This is the &quot;demo&quot; key from the google page......[i.e abcdefg..]

2. I then created a new &quot;story&quot; and pasted the &quot;BODY&quot; information in to the page, without the &quot;body&quot; tags. I called this story page &quot;googlemaps&quot;.

I added this.

 &lt;div id=&quot;map&quot; style=&quot;width: 300px; height: 300px&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
 &lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;
 //&lt;![CDATA[
 if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) &#123;
 var map = new GMap(document.getElementById(&quot;map&quot;));
 map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint(-122.141944, 37.441944), 4);
 &#125;
 //]]&gt;
 &lt;/script&gt;

The page loads blank, no map shows?

I see you have managed to get an image, so I am keen to hear what you suggest.

Cheers

Bill
