hi there

{smbarrassed smile}

well, it was working yesterday - i promiss! today, before i was gonna post the code, i tested it again, with a different address, - and it didn't work.

so, i am looking back into it (i had it runnin g where the xml file was even located on my hd), once i get it back working i'll post it, but it might take a few days, as i am doing this on the side. i also found another site with more detail/fun stuff: http://libgmail.sourceforge.net/googlemaps.html looks like you can do all kind off manipulation with those maps. anyway - you'll hear from me.
