WebBrowser Control and Google maps

[BBQ Kittens]

Is anyone having issues with Google Maps in a webBrowser Control? All of my features using Google Maps within a webBrowser control have stopped working and the day they stopped occured when Google put out a new api version. Here is a post I put on stack exchange with more details:

Any insight is appreciated. If your google maps are stilling working within a webBrowser control I would love to know as well. Thanks.

Hi

I had an issue with this back in March 2014 for the UK it looked to me as if Google had stopped serving the specific mapping service I had been using. I changed the url and the syntax of passing longitude and latitude. I found a format that would work for me for passing longitude and latitude.

Command01.HyperlinkAddress = "https://maps.google.com/maps?q=" & strlatlong & "+(" & strSitename & ")&z=18&iwloc=near&hl=en&ll=" & strlatlong

Where strlatlong = Latitude & ",+" & Longitude

with Latitude and Longitude in Decimal Degrees

I'm afraid not sure what the format is if you are wanting to zoom to a location with a zip / postcode but think it is possible.

@ Lightwave

My google maps are a bit more complicated than that, but fortunately, I just checked my database this morning and now everything works. I am guessing Google resolved whatever the issues were, but thankyou for responding.
