On the original test map it was nearer Memphis than Kansas city for me. (it was at 35.029996, -90.527344) You need to understand how the icon code works to make the kind of changes you are making. You probably want to make the whole red_MarkerA the "iconColor" that is passed into the function. Then construct the url like this: http://www.tiltonrealty.com/Markers/"+iconColor+".png";; -- Larry > This is where I got the pre-made markers. > Default set of Google Map markers in 10 different > colours:http://www.benjaminkeen.com/?p=105 > > Thanks, Gil > > On Oct 17, 3:45 pm, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > On Oct 17, 3:39 pm, Gil <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Thank You > > > OK, removed the extra " from both lines of code and the map is now > > > loading.
