  Strange error using MarkerManager - map moving randomly

  Posted: May 2nd, 2008, 9:03pm CEST by mike_dowler

  Hi,
  

  I have a strange issue - I am pretty sure it is related to
  MarkerManager, since I never used to get it before...
  

  My map is here: [link]
  

  When I click on the marker, it opens the infowindow, but also moves
  the map so that the marker can no longer be seen. The position the

  GDirections load query using via Markers

  Posted: May 2nd, 2008, 8:25pm CEST by Joji

  Is there a way to format the GDirection load query so that middle
  points are not considered stops?
  

  if i pass the URL to maps.google.com it is quite easy:
  if a map has 5 markers
  just add "&via=1,2,3" to exclude the middle 3
  

  but i can't seem to get it to work properly using the GDirections load

  Hello all,
  The crossdomain.xml that is used on maps.google.com [http:]

  crossdomain spec:
  

  "by-content-type: All policy files whose Content-Type is exactly text/
  x-cross-domain-policy are allowed. No other policy files are allowed."

  NET 2.0 Webbrowser control

  Hi -

  which creates the GMap2 object and shows a map. This works fine.
  

  However, if instead of using the Url property I use the DocumentText
  option which holds the HTML as a long string, I get the message that
