Good Morning All

I've just joined cycle-route but I find that no maps are showing on my laptop for any page.

Is there anyone out there with any idea what may be causing this?

Thanks

Strange, so if you go here:

http://www.cycle-route.com/routes/City_of_Dundee-Routes-131.html


The map doesn’t load for you? Which browser are you using and what do you get where the map should be a coloured screen or error message?

Hi and Thanks for your reply...

I am using Firefox and all I get is the frame ie a black line around a white space.

I hope that helps.

Underneath the frame it says

But there are no pointers or anything else but the thin black square.

Strange it loads fine here in firefox, could it be a very old version of FF or do you have another browser installed you could test to see.

It says version 32.0.1 and doesn't normally give me any trouble.

I have no other browser on at the moment but I'll try another PC at my daughters later.

I'll have to run my Grandson with his trumpet to Grappenhall soon.

I've tried to email cycle-route but my emails are returned saying that their inbox is full. Not a good sign. All the adverts from bidswitch etc work well so I guess they are making plenty of money but haven't spent enough time developing the non-advert stuff.

I've checked that scripts are running ok and that their cookies are being processed.
Still no maps...

Hi, I am part owner of the site, we did spend quite a bit of time and money getting all the map related pages upgraded in their coding earlier this year so its a mystery but I'll get someone to look into it.

I have tested it in Firefox version 32 in win 7,8 and XP and cannot replicate the error.

Would you be kind enough to let me know what apps are used to display the maps ie something like flash or whatever - and which is the lowest workable version.

Are there any 3rd party cookies or scripts used etc. I haven't had any problems such as this before.

Please also note that I am using xp pro. I'm 75 and not interested in upgrading any more. XP does everything I need at the moment (perhaps apart from this).

Thanks

I was about to send you a screen dump but cannot find any way to add attachments.

If it would help please let me have a suitable adress.

I could also maybe add firebug and then send some of its reports in case they would help you.

The maps are all displayed using Google Maps API V3 so rely on javascript I believe ( I am no expert)

You can email me on scott {at} sj.co.uk
