I am getting the same as Marcus - tried in both Chrome and Firefox



Once you get to this point Pezzz...

Highlight all the text, hit the 'remove formatting' icon, then add this   [.html]  at the front and [./html] at the end  - DON"T TYPE THE FULL STOPS.

And it should look like this...

I did that exactly as you did and got same thing as Marcus. I even fixed up the spaces and made sure link worked still to no avail. Could it be permission related?

I had success with the old maps over here http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=6001.msg71824#msg71824

and I tried the new maps and had the same result as Pezzz and Marcus so I've gone back to the old maps.

Can you post up your embedded link from the old maps minus the [.html][./html] tags (and yes i know not to put the . in when doing for real)

I restarted the pc and I got another map from the old maps to work so could have been cache or temp folder issues.

I hope I didn't cause too much grief, it was only a simple request which looks like it has been sorted out, well for me anyway. 

A possible route for me from Home to Ballarat:
 

Thanks Marcus.

Now all you gotta do is to make wider images appear on the screen, and you earn another beer from me.

I reckon some of the other guys should be shouting as well, and show some appreciation.

Yeah you kind of can and can't... The code google gives you doesn't embed like the new google maps problem. And to be honest, I like the maps all the same size to avoid cluttering up the threads.

On the plus side if you need to see a full version, then just click on the Google logo in the bottom left corner which will open up a new tab and...Ta daaaaa

For now...yes...

It works for Diesel because he is admin/mod/god of the forum. As you said before... permissions


Yeah, pretty ugly. That's why is easier to just use the old maps and the link inside the html tags...As it seems the forum doesn't support <iframes >

I got it now. Don't use the embedded map link in the old google maps as it gives you way too much info. Just use normal link and wrap in html tags removing the s from https.

Hahaha. Pezzz... that was sorted pages back, I had some screen grabs showing which link to use.

The problem is trying to embed the "NEW" Google maps (you're using the "old" google maps)

Ok - Marcus video worked for me - so I agree - must be a permissions thing.

Can I ask you Marcus to do a video for the old style Google Maps?

Shiney came up with the great idea to post your instructions in the 'welcome to the site' area to help newbies.

The video is much better at explaining this process.

Cheers, Diesel

PS - post it here and I'll:

A) clean up this thread leaving only the successful info; and
B) copy the next instructional video to the newbies section.
