 * I just installed the plugin and i get this error message about the prefixed fullscreen
   API being obsolete in the JS console.
    Do you plan on fixing this little problem
   or should i use another plugin ? I’d be sad, i liked the simplicity of yours 
   🙁

 * Hi Julianoe_,
    Of course we’ll fix the problem. Let me take a look and see what’s
   going on. I’ll post again once we’ve got a fix in place.
 * Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 * Julianoe_,
    The Simple Google Map plugin is not making use of the Fullscreen 
   API. Can you try deactivating the plugin and seeing if the console still shows
   the error? I’m unable to reproduce it in any browser on my end.

 * Strange.
 * So i desactivated the plugin, and the console stopped displaying this error message:
   here it is (in french)

 * I was able to replicate the issue in the most recent version of Firefox (47.0.1).
   Unfortunately, I don’t have any control over the Google map api files where Firefox
   is stating it found the issue. Fortunately, it is only a warning and not a javascript
   error. This warning is not preventing the plugin from functioning properly.
 * Sorry there isn’t anything else we can do about the warning. Hopefully this is
   something that Google will fix shortly.
 * Thanks for reaching out.

 * Ok, waiting for Google to fix the problem then.
    Thanks for the quick answers.
 * Have a good one.
