How to Show google map?

Question

Hi,

I am trying to show a google map using the following code:

<embed height="400" width="600" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;msa=0&amp;amp;msid=110069293083852065946.00047e2506156dd8d127b&amp;amp;ll=27.727526,85.310855&amp;amp;spn=0.021197,0.038581&amp;amp;z=14&amp;amp;iwloc=00047e251edcecb28ba7c&amp;amp;output=embed"&gt;

It works fine and shows the map correctly in my chrome browser by it shows missing plugin in firefox browser.

What is wrong with this? Is the code itself wrong?

Answer 1

There's plenty of documentation on this:

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/basics.html

I've never seen it use embed, usually you just create it using JavaScript assign it to a div tag.

Answer 2

Try using an iframe, not sure where that embed tag came from.

<iframe width="400" height="600" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;msa=0&amp;amp;msid=110069293083852065946.00047e2506156dd8d127b&amp;amp;ll=27.727526,85.310855&amp;amp;spn=0.021197,0.038581&amp;amp;z=14&amp;amp;iwloc=00047e251edcecb28ba7c&amp;amp;output=embed"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
