Using the Javascript API of Google Maps V3, I configured the map to extract data from a dynamically generated KML file. Here is the result: http://theevolvement.org/MapRetailers.php
In my code (copied below) I defined a scale of up to 12 in my map settings. When a page loads, it starts with the designated zoom, but within about one second, the map zooms in (and shifts the designated center) to fit all the plotted points.
We want to load the map with the specified increase, and not include all the data built. Therefore, any advice that may give what I am doing wrong would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
