Thank you.

I don't know how you pass this link to Google Maps?
If you want to generate an URL-String for a given AJAX updater you can
write something like:
(html updater id: 'foo'; callback: [ :r | r render: 'bar' ]; url) asString
Is this what you want? Or do you also need an XHTML snippet with an
anchor tag around that?
(html javascript render: [ :h1 |
h1 anchor
onClick: (h1 updater
id: 'someId';
callback: [ :h2 | h2 render: 'Hello World' ]);
with: 'Click Me' ]) asJavascript
I guess you get the idea ;-)
Cheers,
Lukas
