   <description>When trying to access a map, it gives a javascript error.

The problem is that the /horde/js/hordemap/OpenLayers.js is outdated.  The new version from http://www.openlayers.org/api/OpenLayers.js works correctly.

Perhaps instead of using the static file, Horde could link to http://www.openlayers.org/api/OpenLayers.js - after all, internet access is required to make the maps work in the first place.  OpenLayers encourages linking as noted on this page: http://openlayers.org/

&gt; The problem is that the /horde/js/hordemap/OpenLayers.js is outdated. 

Yes, there is a newer version available, but our code was written against the version we distribute.  I do have it on my list to update the script, but there are a number of customizations we have done that would have to be ported/tested.

&gt;  The new version from http://www.openlayers.org/api/OpenLayers.js 
&gt; works correctly.

What is the behavior that works incorrectly in the version we distribute? 

&gt; Perhaps instead of using the static file, Horde could link to 

We purposely don&#039;t link to the file for a number of reasons.  First and foremost is the huge size of the full openlayers file. We customized the bundled files to include only the features that are absolutely needed, when they are needed.

&gt; http://www.openlayers.org/api/OpenLayers.js - after all, internet 
&gt; access is required to make the maps work in the first place.  

That may be true for 99% of the cases, but it&#039;s not true if hosting your own GIS server to provide custom map tiles.

I&#039;m not seeing any issues with the kronolith map code. Perhaps if you provide the exact error messages you receive, when you receive them, along with the details of the map providers you are using, I can try to track down the issue you are having.</description>

Sorry, I was being lazy.  To get the error I had to copy back the old file, clear my caches, etc.  That error is:

When I create a new entry, put in an address, and then click &quot;Find in Maps.&quot;  The map tab does not open up and I get the javascript error.

Thanks for your help.

Still cannot reproduce using IE 8 - or any other browser for that matter.

With the previous error I was using Google for both.  If I select Virtual Earth for both I get this error:

The latest git pull causes an error with Kronolith and a bunch of other modules as well:

[27-Jun-2010 11:43:22] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined method Horde_Auth::ge
tAuth() in /usr/src/horde/kronolith/config/prefs.php on line 208

I can&#039;t even get to the portal page.  It looks like something changed in the framework and the other modules are not updated yet?

You didn&#039;t update the config/*.php files after you pulled.</description>

Google map provider/geocoder work great now.  I also tried VE/Bing and I received this error:

It&#039;s fine though, as long as one of them works that is great.

Yea, that&#039;s an issue with OpenLayers&#039; Virtual Earth layer. It has issues with late binding to the dom element. I have an open bug with openlayers, and track it on our ticket tracker here: http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/9111
