    <p>This page shows one way of connecting a sidebar link to your markers </p> <p><a href="http://www.wolfpil.de/v3/toggle-cats.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.wolfpil.de/v3/toggle-cats.html</a></p> <p>Copying this page's patterns to your case, you need a <code>gmarkers</code> global variable</p> <pre><code>//&lt;![CDATA[ var map = null; var gmarkers = []; function initialize() { </code></pre> <p>The order in which markers are added matters, they should match the order of the businesses in the sidebar. <code>gmarkers</code> will be updated in <code>createMarker</code>.</p> <pre><code>var point = new google.maps.LatLng(37.984798,-121.312094); var marker = createMarker(point,'&lt;div style="width:205px"&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="images/sampleuopsign.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;h2&gt;University of the Pacific&lt;/h2&gt;3601 Pacific Avenue&lt;br&gt;Stockton, California 95211&lt;br&gt;209.946.2011&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;On the web visit: &lt;a href="http://www.pacific.edu"&gt;www.Pacific.edu&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;\/div&gt;') ... function createMarker(latlng, html) { var contentString = html; var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: latlng, map: map, zIndex: Math.round(latlng.lat()*-100000)&lt;&lt;5 }); google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() { infowindow.setContent(contentString); infowindow.open(map,marker); }); gmarkers.push(marker); } </code></pre> <p>With the array in place, we can address them by index. Wolfpil simply triggers a click event when a sidebar entry (link) is clicked:</p> <pre><code>function triggerClick(i) { google.maps.event.trigger(gmarkers[i],"click"); } </code></pre> <p>And each link can be written like this, replacing 0 and 1 with the order each marker was added:</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href="javascript:triggerClick(0)"&gt;Bank of America&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="javascript:triggerClick(1)"&gt;Bank of Stockton&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>About the marker hover showing a title, the easiest way is adding a <code>title</code> option when creating your markers, but it would mean adding a new parameter to your createMarkers function: </p> <pre><code> function createMarker(latlng, storeName, html) { var contentString = html; var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: latlng, map: map, title: storeName, zIndex: Math.round(latlng.lat()*-100000)&lt;&lt;5 }); </code></pre> <p>A better alternative in the long run is to use an object for <code>gmarkers</code> instead of the array, because adding an item in the middle of the list will disorganize the existing items in the HTML.</p> <p>Then, places can be called by a string ID, such as <code>gmarkers['safeway']</code>. Instead of pushing a marker to the array in <code>createMarker</code>, we assign the id to the marker:</p> <pre><code>gmarkers[id] = marker; </code></pre> <p>If you run into trouble write comments below please! I didn't test the code above.</p>

    1. COThanks, I just tried it but my info boxes do not populate: http://www.calwestcultural.com/sgs/example_map.html I simple added the lines stated above and created one link (Bank of America) and another link under PLACES OF INTEREST for the Univesity of P. Just can't get it to work.

    2. COCut the whole `triggerClick` function from where it is and paste it before this line `function createMarker(latlng, html) {`. The triggerClick function also needs to be global for it to be called from the links. I didn't put too much detail but it matters where each thing is placed.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
