Google map link problem

I'm using an html doc within the iphone app and I want to include a link to a location. Map The above link works in a browser, but when called within the iphone app, it asks if I would like to launch maps and if I say yes - Your device could not determine what app to use to open the url. What is the correct format? Thanks.

Interesting, if it's asking you the question, it should open the Google Maps app. However... it would be helpful if you posted a) What buzztouch version is the app? v1.4 or v1.5 b) What type of device are you using? Simulator will probably not open the link

I have screens using HTML doc with lists of addresses. Touching an address opens Google map outside of the app. Is there a way to keep the map within the app? Thanks.

There is not. If the link is in the HTML it will open the Native Maps app.
