Apparently you need to host the map yourself.

1) Click Download Map
2) Upload map.html it to your web host or save it to a directory on your
local machine
3) Put map.css and util.js into the same directory as map.html (urls below)
4) Open map.html in Firefox.  Everything should just work.

(I discovered this through experimentation...  It appears to work but I
don't know if it's what the original author intended.)


To get map.css and util.js, you can run these commands from the same
directory as the one that contains map.html, or just right-click on the
links in Firefox and hit save as):

wget http://osmtools.de/easymap/temp/map.css
wget http://osmtools.de/easymap/temp/util.js


OSM Slippy Map generator is a cool little utility!  I'm glad to find out
about it.  Hope development continues.
