 * when I go to the worpress root the map loads fine
    [http://www.thisisballoch.com/balloch](http://www.thisisballoch.com/balloch)
 * when I go to the top URL which redirects to the root via .htaccess I get the 
   error ‘Basic Google Maps Placemarks error: couldn’t load map options.’
    [http://www.thisisballoch.com](http://www.thisisballoch.com)
 * when I go to another URL that rediects to the main URL I get a different error‘
   Basic Google Maps Placemarks error: Generic AJAX failure.’
 * any suggestions?

 * I see the same thing when I go to both of those URLs. I don’t get the “couldn’t
   load map options” error. What browser (including version) are you using?
 * I’m going to be removing some unnecessary AJAX in the next release, so that should
   fix the “generic AJAX failure” error.

 * I’m using firefox, I’ve just upgraded to the newest version, I now get the .com
   working fine but the .co.uk is still displaying an ajax error

 * Ah, that’s probably because of the [same origin policy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy).
   Normal AJAX requests are restricted to the domain they originate from. You can
   make a different kind of request that will cross domains, but this won’t be an
   issue in the next release.

 * I just released 1.3 and it should fix this. Can you try upgrading and let me 
   know if it works or not?
