I'm building an indoor virtual tour application using custom panoramas and the StreetView API.  The project is almost finshed and I'm executing the cross browser testing.

The page works fine in Safari, Opera and Firefox, but not in IE or Chrome.

In IE 8/9, the map view fails to even load, leaving an empty space in the middle of the screen.

Chrome loads the div as well as showing the little map, but the image is rendered a black whatever.  The links to the surrounding locations are rendered and work.  The image just fails to load, and there's no warnings whatsoever in the console.

If you could check out 130.111.148.131/JMCTour/testIndex.php and suggest any solutions, I would appreciate it.

In IE: there is an error, flagged by the warning icon in the status
bar. At least this one should be easy to deal with.

Chrome is correctly fetching the panoramic images, but I can't see
where it's putting them in the DOM. Sorry: that's not a great deal of
help.

Thanks for the look.  I found and used a cross browser javascript implementation of the log4j library.  Site now works in IE
