<p>A way to include an Adaptive Map, based on <a href="http://bradfrostweb.com/blog/post/adaptive-maps/" rel="nofollow ugc">Brad Frost’s Adaptive Maps pattern</a>, without requiring an external JavaScript library.</p>
<p>The basic premise is that we should be using mobile devices’ far better-suited mapping applications rather than attempting to frame maps in our own websites. Users w/ larger screens will get a full map in an iframe.</p>
<p>No styling has been provided, but the link and map are wrapped in <code>div.adaptive-map</code>.</p>
<h3>Credits</h3>
<p>All props to <a href="http://bradfrostweb.com/blog/post/adaptive-maps/" rel="nofollow ugc">Brad Frost</a> who presented the idea quite a while ago.</p>
