Hi,
New to the list - but hoping that someone can help.
I''ve recently used Mapstraction on a new website to show a simple
Google map
with a custom marker / marker shadow.
All is working as expected in Firefox, and even IE. But in
Safari/Chrome/Webkit browsers the marker and shadowicon are both showing -
along with an extra shadow (believe it may be the default one).
Is this an issue anyone else has encountered?
Using the following code to create the marker:
var mapstraction = new
mxn.Mapstraction(''themap'',''google'');
var myPoint = new mxn.LatLonPoint(latitude, longitude);
mapstraction.setCenterAndZoom(myPoint, 14);
var marker = new mxn.Marker(myPoint);
marker.setIcon(''/a/img/common/icon.png'', [32,32]);
marker.setShadowIcon(''/a/img/common/icon-shadow.png'',
[65,26]);
mapstraction.addMarker(marker, true);
Really appreciate any guidance,
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
welcome to the list.
One question, are you using google or googlev3?
I use googlev3 and do things the same as you do, all works well. The
only difference I can see is that I pass marker.setIcon three params -
marker.setIcon(icon.image,icon.iconSize,icon.iconAnchor);
icon.iconAnchor is something like [50,50]
perhaps you need an anchor?
good luck,
Ed

Hi Ed, I was using v2 - but just switched to v3 and it solved the problem. Thanks for the tip. I''m so out of the loop with Google Maps (go through spells of not using it on sites) - are there any major disadvantages to v3, love that it no longer needs API keys...
