Adding a Map to a Blank Page 441
The new name appears in the navigation menu. The movie page, is com-
plete. Let’s finish the site by adding a map of Bhutan, and press return.
Adding a Map to a Blank Page
In order to give you plenty of design options, iWeb offers blank page tem-
plates. There are also nine widgets that let you add content from sites such as
YouTube and Google, as well as your own content with your iSight camera and
more. When you combine a blank page with one or more widgets, you’ve got
great design options.
1 Click the Add Page button in the toolbar.
2 Choose the Blank template from the list on the right and click Choose.
A new page is added to your site.
3 In the sidebar, name the page Map.
4 Using the same techniques you learned in the homepage-design exercise,
customize the page title to read THE KINGDOM OF BHUTAN.
You can press Command-+ (plus sign) to make text bigger and
Command- – (minus sign) to make text smaller instead of choosing those
items from the Format menu.
5 Select the smaller text box and press Delete, because we need just a map
on the page.
6 In the Media Browser, click Widgets.
7 Drag the Google Maps widget onto the page.

A new map is added to the page. Currently it shows Apples headquarters
(which is a nice place to visit). Let’s change this to the capital of Bhutan.
8 In the Google Maps window, type Thimphu, Bhutan and click Apply.
The map updates. Next, let’s adjust its size and zoom level so visitors can
see the whole country.
9 Click the edge of the map to see the resize handles.
10 Hold down the Option key and drag the side handle to make the map
larger. Use the figure for guidance.
