Plugin Description
Rewritten code supporting latest WordPress and Google Map API v3 features!
thydzikGoogleMap is a WordPress plugin that creates inline Google maps in your WordPress posts. With advantages over other existing Google maps plugins being;
- Ease of use, to create a Google map simply type ‘thydzikGoogleMap(mapdata.xml)’ (case insensitive) in your post on its own line.
- Uses XML map data, this allows for maximum configurability, and supports multiple coloured and numbers makers and polylines. Info windows can contain html.
- Supports cross-domain XML files by using a PHP proxy (your XML file can be anywhere).
- Google Map width, height, zoom and map type are all individually configurable.
- Allow readers to download gpx files which can be uploaded to GPS for easy navigation.
- Google Maps API v3, no key required.
1.Support for KML files.

Notes
Comments welcome on any suggestions or bugs.
A few pointers:
* if width and height is excluded, the default width and height (460 and 345 respectively), found in the configuration page will be used.
* thydzikGoogleMap will produce a Google map only if the XML file is found, this was made so that examples i.e. thydzikGoogleMap(mapdata.xml) could be posted without producing a Google map.
* thydzikGoogleMap searches post text using the_content and replaces valid thydzikGoogleMap with HTML and Javascript to produce a Google map.
* thydzikGoogleMap produces valid XHTML.
* thydzikGoogleMap can read cross-domain XML files.
