I am using an HTMLloader to display a map in a desktop AIR application using
Google Maps APIs.  I chose HTMLloader over StageWebView because it is much
easier for a novice like myself to communicate with Javascript which is
essential for Google's API, and I couldn't figure out how to get
StageWebView to display on the screen where I wanted.  Everything is working
as it should.  I am able to create and display a map centered on a point
that I define.  I am able to drop markers on the map at coordinates that I
define.  The only problem that I am having is that tooltips do not display
when you mouseover a marker.  When you create a marker in Google's API, you
just need to identify the coordinates for the marker, and you can apply a
string "title" attribute to the marker that will display as a tooltip when
you mouseover the marker. So you can quickly display information, such as an
address or name of the point of interest without having to create more
complicated objects such as InfoWindows. The tooltips work great in all of
the browsers that I tested, but does not work in an HTMLloader.  I am
wondering if you think that this is a z-order issue and the tooltips are
hidden, if there is a setting in the HTMLloader that I am overlooking, or if
perhaps the HTMLloader web technology is too far out of date to support some
of the features of modern browsers?  Any thoughts or insight would be
greatly appreciated.
