[Google Maps API v3] Draggable markers sometimes disappearing on Safari/Mac

2011-03-12 Thread Gary Little
All, I'm experiencing an odd situation which I believe is unique to Safari 5.0.4 running on Mac OS X (in my case 10.6.6). I have created a map containing draggable markers. When I zoom the map in, then pan so that other markers should be exposed, they sometimes do not appear. They usually reappea
