+Stunod Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 (edited) What's up with the big red X on both maps on the cache listings? Not seeing it. You got an ad blocker installed by any chance? Edited December 15, 2009 by Stunod Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Everything looks fine to me as well. Link to comment
+shell1fish Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 What's up with the big red X on both maps on the cache listings? I'm having the same problem, using Firefox 3.0.15. I first noticed it last night. Link to comment
ao318 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I am using the most current version of FF and everything looks good to me. Link to comment

+jimlips Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 What's up with the big red X on both maps on the cache listings? I don't see any big red X, but I am having a related problem. I'm using the latest version (3.5.5) of Firefox. Here is how to reproduce the problem/bug: 1) Go to geocaching.com and do a search for a cache listing (using the "Hide & Seek a cache" link) 2) Click on the link to the cache page 3) When you have the cache page up, scroll down to the links that say "For online maps..." 4) Click on the "Geocaching.com Google Map" link. The map page comes up, with either Smiley Face icons for caches that you've found, or the standard "box" icon for caches that you have not found. 5) Using Firefox, if you click on File, Print Preview, you'll notice that these icons just show up as white squares. This only happens on Firefox. Same procedure on IE shows real icons when you do a Print Preview. Link to comment

This only happens on Firefox. Same procedure on IE shows real icons when you do a Print Preview. The cache-type icons are coded on the page to not print. That IE shows them in a Print Preview is a bug in IE. I wonder if IE will actually print them, too? It could be argued that it's a website bug in that the cache-type icons are coded not to print in the first place Link to comment
+two bison Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Happily, they were gone sometime later. I don't know when, I went to do something else. It would be fun, though, to hear what happened. Link to comment

Can we request that this be changed to print? Nut sure why they'd set it up that way. It isn't like they are copyrighted images. Link to comment
+BigBadger & Li'l SG Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I have that problem all the time... I think it's when there is a spike in Google Maps requests or they are overloaded. It goes away. I've read the same question HERE Link to comment
