Thanks for the replies - I seem to have got MapIconMaker working to
some extent - but I am having trouble passing the data from the
spreadsheet (var param_rankColumn) to the width / height parameters of
iconOptions.

I currently have:

 iconOptions.width = (entry[param_rankColumn]);
 iconOptions.height = (entry[param_rankColumn]);

Which doesn't work.

I want each marker to have a size representing this data, so in my
example Newcastle University would have a marker size 30 x 30, Royal
Academy of Music 15 x 15 etc.  Most of the markers on my map should be
invisible (size 0 x 0).

Any help would be appreciated - I've been looking at it for a day but
I just can't get it working!

Cheers
