Hi,

In the example given below, I am trying to add an 'closeclick' event
listener to my infowindow. But the result is as follows,

- the closeclickListener() is getting invoked at the point of adding
listener to infowindow (ie from the line,
google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'closeclick',
closeclickListener());)
- but closeclickListener() is not getting invoked when I am click on
the close button, instead giving the following javascript error,

> google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'closeclick',
> closeclickListener());

That will execute closeclickListener() at the time you set up the
listener. If you want it to run at the time of the click, pass a
reference instead.
google.maps.event.addListener(..., closeclickListener);

Some browsers will want you to define the function before passing a
reference to it.
