Help with Google Maps

ryanfc · August 22, 2007

I am trying to put Google Maps into my web site and for some reason it is not working.

Explanation of what is happening on the page: When a user click on a client on a previous page it takes them to client_detail.php. Here it loads the information just for that client. I am attempting to pull the address, city and state from the database and feed that to the google maps. But when the page loads it gives me an error saying I have not entered the correct API Key for this web site. However I am copying and pasting it straight from the page it generates. So I am wondering if the problem is in my code or if I need to contact google. Can anyone take a look and tell me if I am doing anything wrong? Thanks.

I had that happen until I made the DNS point to the host. It did not work while I was using the IP number + my ~username. Maybe that is an issue?? It fixed my error which was the same as yours.
