Hi Chouser,

Your script has changed the universe as we know it. Many thanks!
However, my balloons are still gorked out in Firefox although
everything is rendering itself well in IE. Basically everything aligns
left. Being a man of the cloth and not a TRUE man of science such as
yourself I can best explain by saying it looks like the gentleman's
site at: http://www.denvercoffeespots.com/.

What can I do? Is there something in my HTML I should eb doing? I
never had this before although I noticed that FF did not always center
what was in the balloon. I trust all this flattery helps elicit a
helpful response.

Yours sincerely -
Nick

Well, there may be a reply on December 8 about text widths that will
help me...

Try setting a width for your div tags.

<div style="width: 250px; text-align: center">your content</div>

Thanks, I will try this. Do not know why I did not think of this;
thanks for helping me un-noobify myself.

I also if you are interested came across some indications on the Google
Map API list that there is a known issue in Firefox 1.5.

Writer I found there says:

"There's a problem with the display of infowindows in Firefox 1.5. In
order to get them to display correctly, it's necessary to wrap the
infowindow contents in a <div> with a this special style command:

<div style="white-space:nowrap;"> . . . </div>

This then can cause a problem in other browsers if you were expecting
the browser to automatically wrap the text in your infowindows
sensibly. You may need to add explicit <br> tags to perform your own
text wrapping."

But your solution is probably smarter.
