I am currently building a web site that will contain a google map for a real estate company.  Below is the link to get more details on getting a Google Maps API Key.

http://www.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html

The problem that I am having is that a Google Map API key will only work for a specific domain name and directory in the domain.  For example:

www.mywebsite.com/main/      <-- My DNN Installation Directory
www.mywebsite.com/

Both URL addresses above are of the same domain but one is pointing to the root directory of the domain and the other is pointing to a folder in main.  I also know that DotNetNuke uses friendly URLs.  When I create the Google Maps API Key what directory do I need to create the key for.  Esentially, there is only one web page in dotnetnuke called default.aspx, which would be located in my main folder.  Can anyone shed some light on this situation?

I found out that if you get a Google Maps API key for the root of the DNN Installation, then the key will be good for the entire web site.  Since the default.aspx web page is essentially a dynamically built page for every page on your web site, your Google Maps API key will work throughtout the web site.  This will work even if you have friendly URLs turned on.
