Simple Google Map module question.

How would I format the addr attribute for the map to show a specific address?
If I put anything more specific than something like "wakefield, england" the map just appears blank.
Any idea?

in my experience, any address that you can supply to maps.google.com will work.

I tried just using the post code (zip code) and comparing the result given to the result given on maps.google.com, the simple google maps module seems to be out by a few miles.
Any idea why that would be?

That's odd then.
Is there a way of specifying co-ordinates so i could get it bang on?

Same for single markers (map point)?
Someone is reporting similar problem. Me too.
No problems with lat/long marker, empty page with address marker. This not happens in maps.google.com.
Strange behavior, but I'm still investigating. Which is the right syntax for address? "Street city" or something else? Same as maps.google.com?
