Hi there

Developing a website where i am using the Google Maps API

I search for a location and load a business, when you click on the
marker to display the Info Bubbble it displays the breif information
correclty with a more info link which is all working well.

When i click the more info option i now need this to pop up in a light
box or simular, currently it is opening in a new window. The API seams
to remove the class i am using and other code i try.

Does anyone know of a quick fix for this?

Link to screenshots of issue if this helps

http://tokenkiwi.com/Screen2.jpg - Page i need to load via light box
no new screen
http://tokenkiwi.com/Screen3.jpg - Mock up as required

Follow the posting guidelines and post a link to your map that
exhibits the problem rather than screenshots?

told.
