Really nice touch. Only problem I found is one business tab in the wrong spot on the map.

Nice work! I'll keep pin the tab and keep trying it out (I'm on Firefox 26.0) and report if I find any issues.

One question - when I clicked the link in your post, it took me right to the map/login page. When I logged in the map went away and I was taken to the 3006 home page. I didn't see a link back to the map. Am I missing something?

Nicely done Russell

Do you guys have any monitoring of the comments for accuracy? For example, on a location in my town someone marked a location with the comment that the sign is not valid because it is inside. Being inside does not make the sign invalid.

Only thing I see is a way to close the popup when you click one of the pins. I didnt see a way to close it after opening one which obscured pins behind them.

Correction after refreshing the page in Chrome I now see the X in the top right.

In my nightly version of Firefox, your links will get me to your home page of your website. No map. I can see the map being rendered for a split second and then I back to your home page. Chrome also did the same thing. trying now IE.

Really well done.!!

Poked around a bit this morning. Have not found any bugs to report. Will post here if I find anything. (using FF 26.0)
Really like how the pins aggregate as you zoom out. Much better than keeping a hundred pins on one small spot.

Would be handy to have a way to search the map directly.... rather than having to scroll in. (not any problem, just for convenience)

That doesn't make any sense for it to do that. Can you double check that the address bar shows "/map.php" on the end? Perhaps also try clearing your cache? (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ho ... efox-cache" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Otherwise it's quite possible Google Maps is broken in the nightly builds of Firefox, I know those builds tend to be fairly bug-laden. Does it work if you switch to stable?
It could be Lastpass. Let me turn off auto-login to my account on your website.
Once I am logged-on to my account, I can go to your link. It is a Lastpass issue.
