Browser dependent problems with map.hideControls() / map.showControls()

Posted: December 1st, 2008, 7:32pm CET by Papa Bear

I use map.showControls() and map.hideControls() to give my map a
"clean look" when the mouse pointer is not "on" the map. This is

I'm developing some maps in Massachusetts, New York and Maine.
Satellite tiles are not appearing at any zoom level.

I thinks maps.google.com is also affected.

Need a "blank" map type

Posted: April 16th, 2008, 2:32am CEST by Papa Bear

zoom levels the distribution of them is cluttered. The markers may be
between 10 and 100 feet apart.
