I would like the map to load up when I go to the url right away. So right when
you type it in the address box and html page load that the map would too.<br>
Thanks for you time.<br>

<br>
if I understand right, you have a page with an initialize button and <br>
when you click it you get a page with a map and this works fine, ok?<br>
<br>
So send us the html-code of your page with the button. Perhaps we can <br>
"create" an example url for you which you can put in the adress field
of <br>
the browser.<br>

<br>
It could be helpful, if you explain to us, how you want to load the map:<br>
<br>
- do want to load it from a menu or from a link?<br>
- or should your map be part of an html-page and and shall sit in a div <br>
or an iframe?<br>
