Google map display

(1/1)

Perhaps question with simple answer, but don't know, cannot find and therefore ask  ........
If calling url http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?GW2041 I get a map with dark overlay with mutiple white textstrings 'for development purposes only'.
How to get rid of that overlay&textstrings?

IIRC, Google now charges for certain map integrations.  And FindU isn't paying for it.  That's why you're seeing the error.  Same with the GladStoneFamily/CWOP check site.

That's why you'll see a lot of sites switched to OpenStreetMap.  I believe that's the one our Plains Weather and NOAA Radio sites have changed to.

Tln7559:
Enlightning explanation.

Related to application of Google maps had the impression that also possible that User could 'buy' permission for 'use for Development'.
But obviously the design of a website must support such setup, and if not, as User you still get either a marked & darkened picture, or empty picture .......
