| | The optional ''"**type**"'' attribute allows to define the type of the map. If no preview is available, the application will use common preview based on the map type. Can be one of ''"**roads**"'', ''"**topo**"'', ''"**satellite**"'', ''"**hybrid**"'', ''"**nautical**"'', ''"**aeronautical**"'', ''"**historical**"'', ''"**hillshade**"'', ''"**contours**"''. |

| An ''**<outline>**'' tag (pairs of longitudes/latitudes, space separated) can be used to define the area covered by the map. When the map is selected while another area is displayed, the application will ask the user if he wants to move the map over the covered area. | An ''**<outline>**'' tag (pairs of longitudes/latitudes, space separated) can be used to define the area covered by the map.

| The ''**<update-delay>**'' tag indicates after how many time the stored map data should be updated if it's used again. The default is ''**None**'', meaning the application will never try to update the stored data. Must end with ''**D**'' (number of days), ''**W**'' (weeks), ''**M**'' (months) or ''**Y**'' (years). For example, ''**3M**'' means 3 months. Use ''**0D**'' to force the application to update the data on each display. | The ''**<update-delay>**'' tag indicates after how many time the stored map data should be updated if it's used again.

The default and maximum value is ''**3**''. |
| | |
| | The ''**<key-url>**'' tag can be used to provide a link to the key (legend) of the map. The map key is available from the menu of a map. |
| | |
| | The ''**<user-agent>**'' and ''**<referer>**'' tags allow you to specify what is sent in the HTTP get headers when contacting the map server. |
