Using firefox 1.0.3 ( I believe latest) and have no problems with
maps.google.com

Google uses zlib compression to serve their pages and white space removal to
speed up their pages, that is why you are seeing the code on 5 pages, no
relation to your problem

I think its because of some rogue extension you have installed.  Try
removing the extensions you have installed one by one ( you have to restart
firefox after each uninstall) and see which/if is the culprit

Subject: [IMGate] OT: maps.google.com and FireFox

FF 1.0.2 and 1.0.3

maps used to work when it was www/google.com/maps "beta".  When it quit 
working I figured they had pulled it off-line to develop it some 
more.  Then I saw an article this weekend recommending google maps, so 
it  be active, but it still doesn't work.

I get the webpage and the map window, but the map window stays 
blank.  Searching for a city name or zip code gives no error.  View source 
and document properties shows about 17K characters of HTML source on 5 
lines, unformatted and totally indecipherable.

I must have something checked in firefox that blocks the map display, and 
unchecked/checked a lot of radio buttons. I have no trouble on any other 
sites.  

I've been all over FF tools:options, searched and asked in the FF user 
support forum (no answer), and googled for "maps google firefox".

I've checked my Zonealarm log and nothing from firefox is blocked outgoing.

Anybody have any suggestions?

maps.google.com works fine in IE.

thanks
Len
