In step 9 of the instructions for responsive google map I have a question. To insert the code supplied do you erase everything in the custom css page and paste the code or do you put it in between the body { }?

Thanks in advance

step 1 - if you dont want to mess up with main css, you can create new custom.css

step 2 - Copy and paste this link <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/custom.css" type="text/css"> to your HTML <head> </head>

step 3 - add the this code:

<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d212270.5451230493!2d-84.42060395!3d33.7677129!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x88f5045d6993098d%3A0x66fede2f990b630b!2sAtlanta%2C+GA!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1396981185525" width="600" height="450" frameborder="0" style="border:0"></iframe>

to any column you wish to , but make sure wrap the iframe code in a <div>

and the rest of steps explained very well at following link;

Thanks!

Curious as to why you did not use the map element and chose to do a separate div?

First of all it was quick video and I thought that's easy way to make user understand what is going on and how codes work.

I can make another tutorial with map element with it's properties no problem with that at all.

This is odd - I can't get Google to let me customize the size of the map like I used to - have they changed the process there? I only have the option of "Paste HTML to embed in website" but no link to customize.

Thanks in advance
