>Has anyone done anyting with VFP scripting to create Google Map pages? I have done quite a bit, but if you have a page with more than 50-60 icons, it chokes. I see some pages that are incorporating an accompanying xml document and the icons seem to load quickly, but I would rather be able to keep it all in the html of the google page, and if someone has found something that is faster, I'd like to see what they did.

Maybe you could get some help from Google. Your mashup is more useful and potentially higher-profile than many - if they can get you going they might be able to point to your app as a "win" for them.
