I've just finished up an excellent hack which brings the power of address translation (converting a US Postal Address into a Latitude/Longitude) to the Google Maps API - something that wasn't provided in the default distribution. There's a ton of information available, including demos, screenshots, and code on the project page: Google Address Translation.

on the project page: Google Address Translation.
I get file not found there, also on addy given in download.
I tried install, but no matter what I do, I get:

Also firefox says something in script is causing browseer to run slow and may lock it up or something. I must be short something on server as it works great on your site.
I could trade some styling work, I see you are looking for a CSS guru? I'm not a guru, but do a lot, am in Web Standards Group. I left a few comments, got lost on site. Can delete a few.
Thanks for your awesome work!
Please contact me if possible.
