Sending request on intialise.

Hi guys,

I have this website here; http://www.18andup.com.au/test_site/newSouth/stores/map.html and I'm having a small problem with it.

Basically, when you type in a query into the search field and press 'submit' it returns results (eg if you type in 'Sydney', nodes will appear), I just need to know how to make it so the site automatically sends a request when it loads, so when the maps starts it displays results for Sydney straight away.

Anyone have any ideas?

In your load() function, add a search for Syndey:
searchLocationsNear(new GLatLng(-33.873651,151.206890));

You may have to set the zoom explicitly.
