  I’m trying to put a Google Map into a table. I want to have text and map next to each other, but at this moment only the map appears on the top of the page. This is what it looks like:

  

  And it has to be something like this:

  

  How can I fix this?

  I already tried that, but it doesn’t work. When I use these codes..

  <div style=”width:50%; float:left;”>
  …
  </div>

  the map disappears and the only thing I see is a text link to view a larger map. And when I go back to the editor, the <div> codes are suddenly gone.

  I’m sorry to say I cannot help you. I hope another Volunteer or Staff can. If you post the complete code here in between backtick ( ` ) characters (the backtick, not to be confused with the single quote imark s on the same key as the tilde ~ in lower case – immediately to the left of the number 1 key), then the next Volunteer can examine the code and maybe find a solution.

  I can tell you how to fix it, but I need the link to the post or page in question.

  I got it fixed now! :)

  I tried to put the Google maps code outside the table. With the <div> codes I outligned the table on the left side and the map on the right and that worked.
