Any Assistance with embedding Google Maps Engine maps?

    Google Maps Engine Question:
    I am having an issue embedding a “Google Maps Engine” map into my webpage. The iFrame code appears differently than normal Google Maps (please see below)

    Normal Google Maps iFrame Code: <iframe width=”425″ height=”350″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no” marginheight=”0″ marginwidth=”0″ src=”https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&msid=204881510118583214370.0004dc97408df6fc7fd52&hl=en&ie=UTF8&t=m&ll=37.0625,-95.677068&spn=23.875,57.630033&output=embed”></iframe>
    <small>View Unfiltered Cafe Reviews in a larger map</small>

    Google Maps Engine iFrame Code: <iframe src=”http://mapsengine.google.com/map/view?mid=z3dXlww4E2OQ.ktlf4wCdRTQ4″ width=”640″ height=”480″></iframe>

    When I use the normal iFrame code, wordpress will automagically convert it to the Google Maps short code, but I can’t seem to get it to work with the “Google Maps Engine” embed code.

    Any suggestions, or help?

    Thanks!

    Excuse me for asking but are you following this guide for free hosted WordPress.com blogs? http://en.support.wordpress.com/google-maps/

    Leonoelsaumure, did you get it to work for you? I’m still having trouble embedding one of the Google Maps Engine maps into my blog. The code just disappears whenever I click save on the post.

    Timethief, the site you provided works for regular Google Maps, but not for the newer Google Maps Engine.

    That is exactly the problem I am having mariapmuses…and unfortunately, I have not gotten it to work properly yet.

    *sigh*
