Dammit! sichling, can you go break some heads please?

Google Maps has just ceased being useful... not only is the map area confined to a relatively tiny rectangle of fixed size (where it used to expand or shrink with my browser window); not only have they removed most of the UI for zoom levels; but now I get this when I try to get directions:

"Google does not support directions on its html interface. If your browser supports JavaScript, enable it, and then click here."

What the @$%#? So much for that...

edit: How weird. I'm home now and it's working fine in Safari. (It will even give me directions from Torrance to Los Feliz, which is all I ever really wanted.) Just one of those things I guess...

That's odd. I'm not seeing that behaviour.

I'm using Firefox on Windows. It was working fine the last time I tried it (apart from the amusing failure to plot a course between Newport Beach and Anaheim that I already complained about).

Who can tell... just one of those days...

Er, it seems to have decided javascript is off in your browser. You have checked?
