Thank you all. I am really feeling good after getting this much help. I am getting more fun in mapping.
Yes, I tried with the "data view" and I got all of my POIs. So, I am happy that they are not lost at least:-). The thing is, while loading the data view they showed me a warning that the portion of the map contains 133 POIs where only 100 POI is optimal for the browser to rended. Yet accepting that challenge, I could see them all. Can you help me about another thing? Suppose, I have to tag a whole area as "Shantinagar". How can I do not? Here I am not setting a point, rather calling a part of the map as a place. How to do that? Can I add any color to a place, too? And, how can I get the longitude and latitude of a point on the map?
