I'm having the same problem. My map looks just like witchhunter's. In the window options for frame and title all it has is 'none' Also, in the UI log I have this:

Couldn't load .xml
:: Bad data at position 3
:: Encountered unexpected end of file
:: Failed to load data from resource: eq2map/skinnable_WindowElements.xml
:: Failed to load data from included resource: eq2map/skinnable_WindowElements.xml
Encountered data outside of container tags

Are you using any map plugins?

I looked at the eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml file and there was a small change, maybe recently. The first page is:
<Page eq2opensound="ui_window_book_open" eq2usescomwndcontrols="true" Location="237,105" Name="Map" NormalSize="484,640" OnHide="StartUp=False" OnHoverIn="TM_Plugins.OnHoverInWindow.Activated=true UserResizable=false" OnHoverOut="TM_Plugins.OnHoverOutWindow.Activated=true" OnShow="TM_Plugins.OnShowWindow.Activated=true Reset.Activated=True QM_Process.Activated=true StartUp=True" ScrollExtent="484,640" Size="484,640" UserMovable="true" UserResizable="true" version="1.1.0">

and it used to be:
<Page eq2opensound="ui_window_book_open" eq2usescomwndcontrols="true" Location="237,105" Name="Map" NormalSize="484,640" OnHide="TM_Plugins.OnHideWindow.Activated=true StartUp=False" OnHoverIn="TM_Plugins.OnHoverInWindow.Activated=true UserResizable=false" OnHoverOut="TM_Plugins.OnHoverOutWindow.Activated=true" OnShow="TM_Plugins.OnShowWindow.Activated=true Reset.Activated=True QM_Process.Activated=true StartUp=True" ScrollExtent="484,640" Size="484,640" UserMovable="true" UserResizable="true" version="1.1.0">

so it's missing the TM_Plugins.OnHideWindow.Activated=true command when you hide the map window. I don't use any map plugins myself, and the map seems to work ok.

What other UI mods do you use? Did you all just use the "Re-Download All Files" button?

Here's my skinnable_WindowElements.xml file, dated 2/27/2007.

Ok, I just used the "Re-Download All Files" button and it messes up the map like your picture. Generally, you should never have to use that button! From the instructions:

Re-Download ALL Files: When this button is pushed the updater will redownload ALL of the files and will NOT ask for confirmation about overwriting any. ONLY USE THIS when the eq2map mod is working improperly. YOU WILL LOSE all custom plugins and icons when you use this!!!

If you're installing with the autoupdater just update the normal way. Don't use the "Re-Download All Files" button. Use that skinnable_WindowElements.xml file from the previous post and it should fix the problem for now.

Technical note:
There are a lot of hidden buttons and a lot of xml files that interact for the map mod. It looks like someone moved the TM_Plugins.OnHideWindow.Activated=true command from the first page in eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml to the Reset button in skinnable_WindowElements.xml. I didn't really look much further than that though. Who ever changed it should be able to figure out this bug and fix it easily.

Worked like a champ. Thanks for tech support Othesus!

THANK YOU! I was having the same issue and this file fixed everything. By the way, I was having the problem of missing borders as soon as I installed the EQ2MAP, and I didn't add other plugins. The only thing prior to EQ2MAP that I had was ProfitUI.
