Well thank you for that link. We have spent 2 hours trying every solution
that would work for our page.

The basic idea is to move the Google Maps j/s (the culprit along with IE)
*outside* the body tags. Give it an out of body experience.

This did indeed fix the bug however it also introduced a problem with the
start percentage j/s we had to show FF where to begin showing the street
(e.g. it shows Oxford Street starting in the middle).

So frustrating as that is the solution, but Google Maps j/s doesn't like
being outside the body tag for some advanced options.

I wonder if anyone has any other ideas along these lines?
