As above, plus I want the address in the pointer box, the Streetview man, zoom in / out and pan stuff plus I want to point CKEditor at the whole thing with just a Maximise button to make the whole map full screen when its clicked.

I can do the CKEditor thing but I can't do the whole Google Maps thing and make it all work together - any ideas please?

Thanks!

Just view the source of a page which does something similar and cut and paste it....

Actually embedding the map is explained here: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/basics.html

You'll need to work out how you want to include all that on your page but it's not too crazy.

Personally, I use Drupal for all my web stuff and there are modules for Drupal that incorporate Google Maps API pretty easily (and CKEditor, too, as it happens).

Thanks, all - tried that but no joy so far. Guess I just need to keep trying!

All suggestions (and code samples!) welcome.

Could you not just use an iframe??
