one marker per coordinate on a polyline?

[fable]

Hi,

I'd like to put one marker on each set of coordinates on my polyline and haven't been able to figure it out.  Any ideas?

why not put a marker on each set of coordinates on your polyline?

for (var g = 0; g < flightPlanCoordinates.length; g++) {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: flightPlanCoordinates[g],
map: map,
});
}

you make it sound so easy!  thank you - that was exactly what I was looking for :)

it is pretty simple javascript. if you're going to be working with
arrays you should learn how to use the for loop - it does exactly what
both of your questions have asked (performs the same action/actions on
every member of the array). Your other question is a little trickier
because if you add the infowindow listener in a loop the variables get
overwritten (or that's how I understand it, anyway) but what I've
found easiest is to call a function from within the loop that adds a
listener to each marker, thus avoiding that problem:

var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();

for (var g = 0; g < flightPlanCoordinates.length; g++) {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: flightPlanCoordinates[g],
map: map,
});

addList(marker)
}

function addList(marker){
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map,marker);
infowindow.setContent(marker.getPosition().lat()+","
+marker.getPosition().lng())
});
}

hope that helps
