I'm trying to implement the 'Smart Info Window' code by Pamela Fox into my Google map and I just can't seem to get this to work. The map appears with the markers correctly positioned on it. But when I click on the marker nothing happens, but I don't get any error messages and I must admit to being a bit lost with this.
Where am I going wrong?

If I am reading your code correctly you assign listener to point (google.maps.LatLng), while you should do it for a marker. In fragment:
google.maps.event.addListener(point, 'click', function(e) {
var infobox = new SmartInfoWindow({position: point, map: map, html: html});
});
change point to marker:
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function(e) {
var infobox = new SmartInfoWindow({position: point, map: map, html: html});
});

code below includes appropriate comments for proper understanding. Please let me know if the question is not clear
My requirement is to get the information of all markers under a rectangle selection made by user over the map. (using control key + mouse down + mouse move event)
I have a list of markers to be plotted in the google map. In order to manipulate it later I have used Custom Overlays provided by the API. it works fine.
Now I need to allow user to draw a rectangle selection by pressing Control key + mouse down. When the mouse moves, a rectangle is drawn over the map and a check is done whether any marker lies below the rectangle drawn. This also works fine.
However If I scroll the map using mouse the values are wrongly calculated and not getting result. i.e the rectangle is not drawn properly.
My analysis is something wrong with the usage of PageX and PageY of mouse move event. Initially I used clientX and clientY, but to account scroll I used PageX and PageY.
What could be wrong here ? Kindly let me know.

As suggested by Emmanuel Delay, reworked on this using map events and its working
Here is the code for that, if it helps anyone. Please note we have to do control + mouse down + mouse move to draw a selection. Also the div element holding marker have a predefined name appended to identify it later

I'm currently working with Browserify for my JS Files. I got an error when i try to load GoogleMap Api aSync and apply USGSOverlay for custom image overlay.
I followed this https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-simple-async and https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/customoverlays.
Everything work well for a simple GoogleMaps but as soon as i apply the USGSOverlay, i got multiple error like : Uncaught TypeError: this.draw is not a function WM15838:1

The USGSOverlay depends on the Google Maps Javascript API v3. You can't define it until after that code is loaded. Define it inside your launchMap or initialize functions.

Is it possible to change the color of the border, the alignment, padding and other attributes of an InfoWindow? I've been looking for this for a week but I always end up here. And it does not provide a code.
Here's my code.
//Declare an infoWindow variable - shows when a marker is tapped/clicked
var infoWindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow;
// Change this depending on the name of your PHP file
downloadUrl("outputXML.php", function(data)
{
var xml = data.responseXML;
var markers = xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var name = markers[i].getAttribute("name");
var address = markers[i].getAttribute("address");
var type = markers[i].getAttribute("type");
var point = new google.maps.LatLng(
parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lat")),
parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lng")));
var html = "<b>" + name + "</b> <br/>" + address;
var icon = customIcons[type] || {};
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: point,
icon: icon.icon,
title:name
});
bindInfoWindow(marker, map, infoWindow, html);
}
});
function bindInfoWindow(marker, map, infoWindow, html) {
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infoWindow.setContent(html);
infoWindow.open(map, marker);
});
}
function downloadUrl(url, callback) {
var request = window.ActiveXObject ?
new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP') :
new XMLHttpRequest;
request.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (request.readyState == 4) {
request.onreadystatechange = doNothing;
callback(request, request.status);
}
};
request.open('GET', url, true);
request.send(null);
}//END FUNCTION BINDINFOWINDOW
function doNothing() {} //For request.onreadystatechange
By the way, I'm catching those values from an online database, we don't have to mind that, they're all working fine, the only problem is how to customize an infoWindow.
Please help me. Thanks.
ADD: I forgot to say that I will insert this into an android application. I'm using webview.
The content that you pass to an InfoWindow may be: text, HTML, or a DOM element. The InfoWindow is by default sized to fit whataver content you pass, so the best way to control the content the way you describe is to create a div, assign a CSS class to the div, and then you will have complete control over the appearance of your InfoWindow content.
Also, if you want to have more control over the actual appearance of the window structure itself, you may want to consider using the InfoBubble Utility Library as a stylable drop-in replacement for the standard InfoWindow.
Checkout the sample code of this url,
In this code, InfoBox extends GOverlay class from the Google Maps API and creating div dynamically and drawing into the map.

I am having a problem with a custom overlay icon marker in google maps.
It works fine at all zoom levels, but disappears at max zoom. In the demo only the lower icon disappears, but the upper one is ok.
Demo: http://random.hypervolume.com/map_bug.html
Try to zoom in on the lower marker, the one on 34-th street. At max zoom level it disappears.
Here is the source:
var map;
function init() {
var opts = { zoom: 14, mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP };
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('mapcanvas'), opts);
map.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng(40.761231, -73.9839609));
new MyMarker(new google.maps.LatLng(40.761231, -73.9839609), map, "A");
new MyMarker(new google.maps.LatLng(40.75013, -73.987974), map, "B");
}
var ICON_WIDTH = 52;
var ICON_HEIGHT = 52;
var ICON_URL = "http://random.hypervolume.com/m1.png";
function MyMarker(position, map, id) {
this.id = id;
this.position = position;
this.map = map;
this.setMap(map);
}
MyMarker.prototype = new google.maps.OverlayView();
MyMarker.prototype.onAdd = function() {
var div = this.div = document.createElement('DIV');
div.id = this.id;
div.style.width = ICON_WIDTH;
div.style.height = ICON_HEIGHT;
div.style.position = 'absolute';
var image = new Image();
image.src = ICON_URL;
div.appendChild(image);
this.getPanes().overlayMouseTarget.appendChild(div);
};
MyMarker.prototype.draw = function() {
var pos = this.getProjection().fromLatLngToDivPixel(this.position);
pos.x -= ICON_WIDTH / 2;
pos.y -= ICON_HEIGHT / 2;
this.div.style.top = pos.y + 'px';
this.div.style.left = pos.x + 'px';
};
Ok, got it!
Just add the following style to your div:
-webkit-transform: translateZ(0px)
You can do this in JS:
div.style.webkitTransform = 'translateZ(0px)';
Origin issue: http://code.google.com/p/google-maps-utility-library-v3/issues/detail?id=176
I've been using code from http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/infowindow_custom/infowindow-custom.html, which is currently google's best example of how to create custom InfoWindow's in Maps API v3. I've been working on it and so far I've got it close to working except for one thing, it the div container the text content won't expand to fit the content, so it just drops off instead of expanding the bubble. if I give the content container a fixed pixel width it works fine but I can't get it to expand depending on the amount of text in it.
I've been stuck on this one for a while. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!!
I've faced the same problem. The approach that worked for me was to dynamically determine the dimensions of the content and set the height and width of the InfoBox correctly. The problem that I encountered with this was that before the content is inserted into the DOM it doesn't have (correct) dimension values. As a result my approach was the following:
Create the DOM content element that needs to be inserted
Insert it in a temp container
Get dimensions of temp container
Remove temp container
Insert content in InfoBox and set its height and width based on temp container dimensions
Here is an example done with the jQuery framework:
var temp = $("<div class='temp'></div>").html(content).hide().appendTo("body");
var dimentions = {
width : temp.outerWidth(true),
height : temp.outerHeight(true)
};
temp.remove();
var overlayProjection = this.getProjection();
var top_left = overlayProjection.fromLatLngToDivPixel(this.point_);
var dimensions= $.extend({}, dimensions, {
y : top_left.y - dimensions.height,
x : top_left.x - dimensions.width/2
});
var div = this.div_;
$(div).css({
"top": dimensions.y + 'px',
"left" : dimensions.x + 'px',
"width" : dimensions.width + 'px',
"height" : dimensions.height + 'px'
}).html(content);
Hope that helps!
You may override the the infobox draw method and reposition the infobox after it has been rendered:
var infobox = new InfoBox(myOptions);
infobox.initReady = false;
var oldDraw = infobox.draw;
infobox.draw = function() {
oldDraw.apply(this);
if( ! infobox.initReady) {
// Calculate the required offset
var offsetY = -($(infobox.div_).outerHeight());
var offsetX = -110;
infobox.initReady = true;
// Set the new pixelOffset
infobox.setOptions({
pixelOffset: new google.maps.Size(offsetX, offsetY)
});
}
}
