Mobile mapping with native browser control

Dixie,

I just create a browser control and load this
url==>"http://www.google.com/maps?q=some+address"

Sometimes it's just easier to go with the wind. I got Mergext and will do a
native map on iOS and continue using the browser control for Android(Until
Monte writes the Android version). This will be the first "if the platform
is" in my code. I guess it had to happen.

Thanks all!

Are you using the Google Maps API version 2 to make a static map or version
3 that lets you make a map where you can then wander all over the place ? I
just wondered if that might be an issue as version 2 has been deprecated for
a while now, even though it still works...
