My guess is that the checkerboard is the result if you do not have Google Chrome installed. I am getting the checkerboard on both of my computers. The first time I went to the site on each computer, I get a message about Google Chrome.

Tom I did install it with no consequences. I am always cautious of adding programs myself. The map did work fine after adding it and it is really cool.

The problem with the posting things I was updating some code to make sure I wouldn't get stray markers and that the states came up uniform. So is it working ok for everyone that can see it now?

International members if you experience a problem let me know. I'm still trying to work all the kinks out with address formats from around the world.

The Google Chrome thing is nothing malicious it is just an add on for Internet Explorer to make it act like Google Chrome browser or Mozilla Firefox. That is the only way that I found it will work on Internet Explorer because the script used to render the map is too advanced for IE. So if you haven't installed it you will need it to see the map and you can get it here:
http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/.
Once you get the frame it will run and the background and you will never know it is there or that it is running.

I fixed the error that wade was referring to. It was a really dumb programmer mistake on my part sorry everyone it should all be working fine now.

I've passed this on to a UK Wine site I'm with. I hope that's ok?

It ok to pass on I'm just having problems right now getting UK addresses to display properly on the map. I'm only having some luck with a few markers other will not go on the map no matter how I format them. Any advice from some people in the UK would be great on this matter. All my research so far has just turned up something about the Royal Mail restricting postal codes on online maps.
