Thats what I do. In my experience its lighter weight than using a custom handler (say php) Use the rewrite engine to perform the redirect, rather than a ErrorDocument, that has too much overhead. RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /img/transparent_1x1.png [L] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
