I looked and really couldn't find any answers to my admittedly non-

to know if it's capable of the following:

1. For lines, is there an established line symbol set or is this
totally customizable. I'd like to render complex lines on our site

Hi,

I have some Problem with searching for a zipcode / postcode only.
When I enter "16000, USA" for example I get some streets (16000 W,
16000 N) in Utah, but I wanted to get zipcode results only, not
streets.
In fact it seems, that this postal code "16000" doesn't exist in USA,
but then I'd like to get an error message...

Mootools Conflict Help!

Posted: April 18th, 2008, 1:07am CEST by Joe

The simple example below demonstrates a conflict with mootools. If
you put your own key in, as well as your own path to the mootools JS
framework you should see that when mootools is loaded an extraneous
marker gets created. When mootools is not loaded the script works as
expected and only two markers are created.
