The old Exhibit API has no issues with gmapkey when I upload it to an
internal website. It works great.

However, using the new Exhibit API (as above) gives me the following error
no matter what I put in for gmapkey (even if one tries to register for a
new key):

"The Google Maps API key used on this web site was registered for a
different web site. You can register a new key for this website at
http://www.google.com/apis/maps/."

This aforementioned error causes an Exhibit "Failed to create view
[whatever title you defined]".

Again, no errors when testing using localhost. No errors when uploading to
a website when using the old API.

Windows, Firefox 2.0
