What route should I take in resolving this issue?

Why don't you ask the person who wrote the map script? Or look at a
site that implements it successfully (if one exists.)

Well. The original creator of the script does not support it any
longer. He was using v3 of Live maps that never supported safari. I
"hacked" it up for use with my georss feed and got it working with v6
that does support safari.
A site that has successfully implemented something simular to mine
doesn't exist (that I know of)

Hard to tell you what is wrong with a site that tells me Safari Browsers
are not supported by Microsoft.

You still haven't answered my original question in my original reply to you.

"And what issue is that?"

Well, you finally did say that you couldn't get the map to appear. But,
when you blanket give me a page to try in Safari to try to figure out
what the error is, it doesn't do a lot of good to redirect me to a page
that tells me you don't support the browser you want to debug.

And don't quote signatures. It makes me more brutal than Opera/Safari
mixups.

The issue is this. I can get the map to appear. But I can not get the
GEORSS feed to appear in the map (The dots). I can get it to work in
Firefox and IE. No workie in Safari. I have edited the javascript to
allow Safari users to see what I am talking about.I think I know what
I might need to do. I can not attach the javascript as a separate
file. I may have to include it into the page.
