Thanks very much Goddess, a nice clean simple example without all the added baggage.

Is it possible to use the API with addresses rather than lat/long keys? I’ve been thinking about putting together a map interface for my company that allows people to put a few addresses on a map and see how it plots out.

The way I understand it is that it is valid for a URL/(directory). A subdomain would be considered another URL. However, subdirectories in the same domain/direcotry are valid. So (again, this is my understanding, I could be wrong) this is all valid:
if you registered the key for http://www.mysite.com
this is also valid:
http://www.mysite.com/mymaps/

This would need a new key:
http://mymaps.mysite.com/

is the Google API key valid on a directory level or domain/subdomain level ?

I wouldn’t put my hand on a flame on this, but I think that the Google Maps API key is tied with the url you gave in the form. So, if you ask for the API key again with the same uri, you should get the same key.

Same as Darrel says.

I was using yourgmaps because of how the other examples wouldn’t work for me.

This one explains it great.

Thanks

Thank you so much! Yours is the only example I browsed out of nearly 10 that actually worked. Praise Be to the Goddess!
