Hi, I was wondering if you've managed to fix this problem? I am trying to do the same thing and don't know what to do. I want to tailor the results (markers) based on the user's search. However whenever I try to modify the SQL query in genxml.php (by making a comparison with what the user entered), no xml gets generated and the map doesn't even load.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.
