Yesterday, I got the rss feed working. After that and today I was working on the Google map and the track list with all 17 formula one tracks of the 2007 season. Honestly I fought a while with the stupid Google Map in the IE7. The problem was that the requirement says that you should use a different event handler than "onload". I though, OK for testing purposes just move the rss and tracklist call functions into a "script" element into the buddy:
<body onload="load()" onunload="GUnload()">
and within the buddy:
<script type="text/javascript"> readfeedXML(); readtrackXML(); </script>
Everything worked fine (with FF), UNTIL I was loading the page in IE7. IE7 told me, he couldn't find the map object ... but FF could ??? Anyway, after a couple of hours try & error & googeling I read something that lead me to the test to load the "load()" function TOGETHER with the "readfeedXML()" and the "readtrackXML()".
<body onload="load();readfeedXML();readtrackXML()" onunload="GUnload()">
And that was the whole problem with the IE7 ... I could have killed IE7 ;)
So, I fixed this problem and now all the functional requirements that I planned for Iteration 2 are included:

Tomorrow, I will update the layout a little bit and add some more CSS and than Iteration 2 will be launched ;)
So far the Update.

I wouldn't use my buddies to insert "script" elements into them
