The icon markers that are gray show the various uses of the <div> coding in the var points, adding photos, colored text, sized text, links, italics and bold fonts and in a couple of them shows where to change the tab names. The green icon marker in Mexico shows adding a nice photo to the info window. The names and discriptions for the various colored icon markers in the table form at the right can be changed as needed, and certain colors can be removed or moved to different positions. The number of tabs in the info windows appariently with what I've got so far have to be the same number for all the icon markers, but they can be reduced to two or increased to 4 or more by changing the coding where the words tab and contents are shown. Adding the StreetView link works kinda nice.
