Your code got mangled by the groups interface. These examples may
help you:
http://www.geocodezip.com/v3_markers_infowindows.html
http://www.geocodezip.com/v3_markers_normal_colored_infowindows.html
http://www.geocodezip.com/v3_MW_example_map1.html

There is only one infowindow shown at a time, but they use the marker
"click" listener to open the infowindow.

Actually as in the example it works in my website of google map. I do have 10 html hyperlink outside of the google map for each location. so when user click on the location hyperlink , infowindows opens in the google map.  For each location hyperlink  click  an infowindow opens in google. My question how do I close infowindow before I open new infowindow if user click on the html hyperlink.

 

Thanks

Sudhakar

I can't say from the information you posted. If you look at my
examples, you might be able to figure it out, if you post a link to
your map, I might.

Reading this thread I'm not sure if info windows should be closed before new ones are opened. This example does not call close before open: http://www.geocodezip.com/v3_markers_infowindows.html

Assuming a global info window, what's the right thing to do?

Set a position or pass marker during open()?

Call close before open?

Check what marker was selected previously before closing?

Create a separate info window per marker, so that every marker owns its own window?

Hi Dan,

The recommendation is to only have one InfoWindow, changing the content and updating its position (or using the "open" method).

This is the technique used in the example you linked.

Roger, one info window.

Do you recommend setContent + close() + open(marker) or simply setContent() + setPosition().

Also, I'm finding that the window wipes out the content it's showing after it's closed. So when I go back to the same pin and call setContent(myInfoDiv) the content is null :)
