In my application http://members.shaw.ca/msdwilkie I display a mini
map inside an infowindow.  This used to work fine, but last week I
looked at the app again and noticed some strange behaviour.  The first
time you click on the marker the infowindow that gets displayed is
empty and a Javascript error occurs. On subsequent clicks everything
works fine.  The basic logic is

var tab1 = new GInfoWindowTab("Info", '<div id="detailmap"
class="bubble"></div>');
var infoTabs = [tab1];
marker.openInfoWindowTabsHtml(infoTabs);
... some more code
dMapDiv = document.getElementById("detailmap");
detailMap = new GMap2(dMapDiv);

What's happening is that dMapDiv gets set to null the first time this
code is run (perhaps because the DOM object hasn't had time to be
created yet?), so the last statement (creating the GMap) fails.

I've noticed that this page 
http://mappinghacks.com/projects/gmaps/map_in_box.html
exhibits the same behaviour.  Presumably it also worked properly at
some point in the past.

I'm at a loss for how to ensure that the detailmap DOM div object gets
created before it gets referred to. Any help would be greatly
appreciated!
