Inserting Google map into iweb page

Hello
I have just bought iWeb 2, and used it to start a website at http://web.mac.com/peterdewit/toymaker/Home.html. (it comes up if you leave the end bit off!)
I followed what seemed to be incredibly simple instructions to create a Google map. It looked so easy I thought it was too good to be true. Unfortunately that turned out to be the case!
After more than one hour I gave up. A map of 1 Infinite Loop Cupertino California was determined to remain as the star attraction of my Location page. Even my wooden Royal Danish Life Guard and Grenadier Guards Drum Major couldn't remove it!
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Any help gratefully accepted.

Here's a wild guess...
Sometime ago, I read in this forum about somebody having problems with the default email address used by iWeb for the "email me" button. It seems to get this from your personal information in "Address Book" which you filled in when you first opened the application.
If you didn't do this, it is probably still using the Apple Computer Inc. information.
Try trashing the Apple entry and make sure your own "user" one is up to date with your correct address, email etc.
I hope this helps - I DID say it was a wild guess!

Copying a google map into a Pages document

I was wondering if anyone knows how to copy a google map into a Pages document? I am creating a real estate flyer, and would like to include a map on the back. I know how to insert a Google map using the Widget in iWeb, but not using Pages. Any help is greatly appreciated!

You can take a screensnap of the map: +cmd shift 4+ and drag over your selection. The snap lands on your desktop named +Picture 1+ etc.
Make sure you enlarge the map as big as possible on the screen as it is only at screen resolution, 72dpi, and you need about 300dpi for printing.
Usually it is better to draw a simplified diagramatic map for directions in a vector drawing program like OmniGraffle, VectorDraw, ZeusDraw, EazyDraw, LineForm, Intaglio or Illustrator. Bring these in as .pdf files which are freely scalable.
Pages also has drawing tools at the bottom of the Shapes pulldown menu on the ToolBar but it is cumbersome compared with the dedicated programs.

Inserting Google Map into a web page

Hello
I am having severe difficulty in trying to insert a Google Map into my website at http://www.peterdewitscafe.co.uk.
I have got a API key, then generated code to copy/paste as appropriate. After several attempts I can only get an error message saying:
"The Google Maps API key used on this web site was registered for a different web site. You can generate a new key for this website at http://www.google.com/apis/maps/".
When asked by Google to enter my URL I enter http://home.btconnect.com/peterdewitscafe/, as I understand that the key/code is specific to the server (my server is ftp.btconnect.com).
My site is built with freeway. I'm wondering if there is a problem arising from the fact that I built an earlier site with the same URL in iWeb. But the freeway one is uploaded now and surely overwrites the old one doesn't it?
Does anyone have any advice? - or is there no way around this problem.
Any help will be very welcome.

Have you actually tried this to see what it does?
In Muse when you import the oam file the entire project within the file is extracted and placed within the folder structure of the Muse project and using an iFrame the Edge Animate animation is included into the html of the Muse project.
Dreamweaver, Indesign and whatever other Adobe software that can import Edge Animate projects can't take the html and individual assetts like css and js and just use them. Instead you have to export the Edge Animate project into an oam file which is basically a zip file with folder structure and some instructions that tell where everything is and how they are linked together.
Indesign, Muse, Dreamweaver then takes this file and exports out the oam folder into the current folder structure of the current opened project and brings in the assetts. In Muse it uses an iFrame to bring in the Edge Animate files, I don't know about Dreamweaver or Indesign.
So you see, the oam is being used but when you upload the finished project it is not the oam that is uploaded but the actual html, css and js contained within. Dreamweaver just needs the context of everything and it can only get that from the OAM file, it is only a container.
If you wanted to take the Edge Animate assetts and put them together manually inside of dreamweaver you can do that but the OAM import is just faster because dreamweaver does it all for you.
All I can say is this is Adobe's way of doing things.

Create .kml based google map in iWeb

Using iWeb 08, I can easily and successfully insert google maps into my pages using the web widget. I am then limited to an address though for the base map.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to insert a google earth based .kml file in iWeb so that when a user opens the page, the desired placemarks etc... are displayed and available?
If so, how might I go about accomplishing this?
any pointers are very much appreciated!

Don't use iweb2 google map widget.
Instead, go to google map, enter the GPS coordinates, then add it using HTML Snippet. See this thread:

Inserting MobileMe Videos into IWeb

I have three questions about inserting MobileMe Videos into iweb.
1) I used the "insert from MobileMe" command in iWeb and it allows me to insert a video but I can't change the size of the video. Do you know how I can change the size.
2) I have some movies I have uploaded to the gallery via iMovie and some I uploaded via the mobileme site. The ones via iMovie I can easily insert like I mentioned in Q1 but the others I uploaded are put into an album and iWeb doesn't allow me to select the video I want to insert. It only allows me to insert the whole album which is a small box with links to the album. I want to choose the video to insert into the page. Any ideas How?
3) Is there a way to insert the video from mobileme using the Html Snippet? If so, how?
Thanks
Neil

You can use the [OBJECT/EMBED|http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/object.html] code for inserting media in a page.
When you know the location of the movie you can create a path to it.
Your webgallery is in iDisk>Web>Sites>_gallery>100999>Movie.

Embed an interactive google map into a PDF

Hi there,
I'm currently working on a client project where many different store locations need to use the same layout, but with a large map. In order to save costs for the client, the aim is that each store will edit the template to their own store. So I'm wanting to embed google maps into the pdf (which I've done via InDesign), where the store can simply drag the map and zoom in on their individual location (pins are not needed) and then print out their document. I've been able to make an interactive map using the html code google maps gives you in InDesign, and works fine in Adobe Content Viewer - but not in Adobe Acrobat, where it ends up as a static image. This happens regardless of wether I save it as an interactive PDF, or SWF file.
Is there anyway to embed a dynamic, working google map into an interactive PDF document?
(notes: I am working on iOS. The file will have to work on both Windows and Macintosh, but I understand that it may only work when the file is opened in Acrobat)

Embedding a google form into iWeb.

I am trying to embed a google form into iWeb and the full form does not show up. I used the HTML widget and copied and pasted the google link.
Thoughts?

Hi Ralph,
We can use fragments for such requirements but at the end when you add a fragment only the xfo is copied not the data.
so ideally this is not possible in Adobe forms atleast for now. so we need to have links to launch the child form.
Cheers,
Sai

Inserting music track into iWeb site

Hallo
Can anyone tell me how to insert some music into my website at http://www.peterdewitscafe.co.uk? Specifically, I would like to play a track I have recorded in realPlayer. I have the program icon on my desktop, but I dont know how to copy it into a page of my site.
Thanks

First issue should be the author of the file and the permission to use the work in your pages. If you didn't create it you must ask for permission to use it.
iLife includes GarageBand and you can find some fun in making your own audio files.
It's difficult on a Mac to convert .ra (Real Audio) formats to QuickTime formats and iWeb only uses QuickTime.
