Hi James,



Thanks for the email.

The two maps are in Italian or at least not in English.



The real strange thing is using the same Latitude and Longitude information
and using the Javascript/Flash API, the map renders fine in English.



The called URL is at this page:

http://www.dmauctions.com/mullaghmore-rd-creevkeel-cliffoney/13/print_proper
ty_profile.html



This calls the Static MAP API which are in foreign language.



The URL for the same property for viewing purposes under the map and office
tabs and uses the JavaScript/Flash API :

http://www.dmauctions.com/mullaghmore-rd-creevkeel-cliffoney/13/profile.html



The maps here comes in English.



Please review and send me your input. Thanks in advance.



Regards

Kunal Bedi

Hi Kunal,

Could you please provide some example requests that show Italian labels when
you expect English?

Hi Group,

I am using REST API or Map Image API to fetch a static map based on latitude
and longitude data with custom image size and output as PHP

The map comes up fine but in Italian language rather than English.

Please note that we are building a service for a Property portal in Ireland
and while almost all of the static map generated are in English, there are
couple which comes in Italian language for no apprarent reason.

Am I missing a parameter or something here?

I have searched through the net but failed in finding a solution for this.

Please take time to answer.

Regards
Kunal Bedi
