tnx

Hi Igor,

We don't currently have a google maps tutorial for CMS Builder. We used to have one available for Listings Manager, is that what this is in regards to? If so, feel free to drop us an email to support@interactivetools.com.

Hmm,
honestly, I don't know what Listing Manager is, I was thinking about cmsBuilder.

Hi Igor,

You can use the straight embed code that Google gives you no problem -- it's generally a little easier to use this in a plain text field. If you're looking at any given Google Maps page, you'll see a link that says "Link". If you click on it, you'll be given the option to [url http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=37.0625,-95.677068&spn=49.891082,79.013672&t=h&z=4]link to it directly[/url] like this, or embed code that allows you to embed it into any HTML page. Here's an example of the code you'd get:

<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"
src="http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&amp;ll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;spn=49.891082,79.013672&amp;t=h&amp;z=4&amp;output=embed">
</iframe>
<br /><small>
<a href="http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&amp;ll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;spn=49.891082,79.013672&amp;t=h&amp;z=4&amp;source=embed"
style="color:#0000FF;text-align:left">View Larger Map</a></small>


Nothing special in CMS Builder is required for this, it's just straight HTML. :)
