Sample map code:
 
 
 
<pre>
 
<googlemap lat="40.806068" lon="-73.964987" type="map" zoom="16" width="500" height="300" controls="small">
 
40.806068, -73.964987, Broadway residence hall
 
</googlemap>
 
</pre>
 
 
 
The easiest way to edit a map is to insert the above sample code, then click "make a map" immediately above the text editing box. This will allow you to insert place markers.
 
 
 
Let's keep small maps (one or two buildings) to a width of 500 and a height of 300.
