Set different extents for one map embedded in multiple web pages

Question

Hi, I have a map that I'd like to embed on multiple web pages (map of photos, different extent on each photo web page). I know how to set the default extent of the map and how to set a map extent in a link using URL parameters but have trouble with this for an embedded map. For example embedding the following code leads to the embedded map using the map default extent but when accessed using the "view larger map" link the specified center and level are recognised and used correctly.

Randy,

It's pretty unlikely that we'd do that as a URL parameter. I suspect it would be rather slow to open a map, as we'd have to send a query to the server to retrieve a value, extract it's extent, then center the map.

Thanks,

Mike

Mike, I'd like to do that same thing but for 100 different web pages.  Each page represents 1 water access site.  Will there ever be an option to select the center based on a definition query?  Like  [site] = '137'

Thanks

Thanks Mike, I couldn't and can't make the center and level commands work for the embedded map for whatever reason, but the extent does the job.
