It there a way to prevent Google Maps from zooming in when your search for a city?
Scenario: When I search for Ocala, FL, it's not because I want a map of Ocala, FL. It's because I want to know where Ocala, FL is.

I don't think that's possible at the moment.. | |||

Just a thought, haven't tested at all, but I would think you could capture the scroll wheel movement using Javascript and NULL out the action. Although this would not keep the user from double clicking or using the UI, you could do similar things for those. | |||

There really is not a way. If you look at the API for Google Maps you will see the when you perform a geocode that the one of the values returned was accuracy http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/services.html#Geocoding_Structured Now the geocoding has types: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/services.html#GeocodingAddressTypes which google uses to know what zoom level to zoom in at. | |||
