[AccessD] New Web Browser Control - Local Files for Google Maps

[David Emerson]

Hi Ryan,

Yes I picked up the point about the prefix.  The file partially works - the local file opens and partially shows in the control but the google map doesn't appear.  I think it might be to do with the map marker images but I am not very familiar with html.  I converted the code from another site but am having problems debugging it to find out why the image for map markers are not being picked up.

If someone had their own google map api key and was willing to look at the code I can put together a sample database.

IIRC you have to prefix the local file URL with http(s?)://msaccess/

eg:
https://msaccess/C:\mywebpage.html

did that not work?
