Never mind, it is working. It must have just been my browser cache.

That solved the problem. Thank you very much!

One final question. The map will load fine when I got to http://www.dililah.org/index.html, but when I go to http://www.dililah.org, the index.html file loads but the map doesn't load. Is there a place I need to put this script so that when a user types in just dililah.org it will still show the map on loading?

Thanks again.

Google now requires that all map applications provide an API Key. Here's what you need to do:

1. Visit this page to get an API Key

2. Once you have your API Key, You need to change the following line in the header of each file from this...

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3.13&sensor=false"></script>

...to this...

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3.13&sensor=false&key=YOUR_API_KEY"></script>

Be sure to replace "YOUR_API_KEY" with the API Key you generated in step #1 above.
