Need help adding a "add marker" button inside of the map.

[whereschp]

Can anyone point me in the direction of how to add a button which when
clicked will change the cursor to and add marker function.

I would like it to look something like this http://whereschp.com/img/test.jpg
It will primarily be used for mobile devices.

What you are looking for is a custom control
See this link for documentation and a couple of working examples:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/controls.html#CustomControls

Extending the example in the link above, you can add a marker
"onclick" of the control

google.maps.event.addDomListener(controlUI, 'click', function() {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: map.getCenter(),
map: map
});
});

Hope this leads you in the right direction

I also have a problem with my div table.
Why in V3 does this not work for me?
<div id="map" align="middle" style="width: 100%; height: 100%"></div>

The V3 map works with this one.
<div id="map" align="middle" style="width: 716px; height: 605px"></
div>

In V2 the 100% works fine on the same map.
