OLC Google Maps - how do I get it working

When I look at the flight information on OLC I have the "Standard" map
feature selected. When I click on "Google-Maps (2D)" I get this
message:

"The Google Maps API server rejected your request. This could be
because the API key used on this site was registered for a different
website. you can generate a new key for this web site at
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/"

Anyone know how I can get this google maps working? Seems like a very
neat function.

Thanks,

Scott

I kept getting a parsing error in IE 8.0 and couldn't view the google
maps.

My eventual solution was to install Mozilla Firefox for a browser and
haven't had a problem since. This also fixed some formatting issues I
had with other sites I visit.

I get error messages when trying to use the Google Map option about
50% of the time with Internet Explorer. This is going on since at
least last year. I notified OLC few times about it but they claim
there is no problem...

All you need to do is remove the 3 from behind the www.
It works for me.

Removing the 3 was the problem with mine using Firefox. This is in a
former post from this Spring.

Hmmm...I don't even see a "3" in the URL. Here is an OLC example of a
flight with the google link activated.

the www3 address is most likely due to load balancing on the web host.
If the www3 address is not registered with google the API will fail.

Works perfectly in the Mozilla thing... The other "M" product may have
problems.

This is the error that I always get in IE8.0. According to the
Microsoft knowledge base for KB927917 this was a recognized bug in
prior versions of IE but was supposed to be fixed in IE8.0.

Oh well....I just use Mozilla

This is the same answer I got from the OLC team, but this is not the
same issue. There is no 3 in the url. The issue seems to be with IE.
But I am sure there is a simple fix for it.
