We just take what you enter for the maps and send it to Google to make the map that we show.

Are you entering an address to get the map or are you entering the iframe code?

If you are entering an address, you should copy/paste to the Google maps website to make sure it still works for them.

Also, if you are getting the iframe code, you may want to re-fetch that from Google. They may have changed their iframe code.

I am seeing your map on one of your sites (I only looked at one) showing Kunming. I'm using Chrome as my browser.

Thanks everyone. I tried both chrome and ie on my main desktop. Both failed. Safari on the iPad worked ok so I tried a second system with chrome and it worked fine.
Both systems are running Win 7 ultimate 64 bit with the same version of chrome.

I looked into this. The only suggestions that I can offer are to replace the iframe code with "fresh" iframe code or try to reinstall your Chrome browser. (I would try the former first.) Keep in mind that there are number of parameters and options embedded in the iframe code. It is possible that Google changed those and the resulting error is having an effect in Chrome but not other browsers. (If there was an error with the iframe code, which browser would most likely have an effect... think about it.)
