I can't take a look at your code right now as I have an extremely slow
connection right now, but simply do as Larry suggested. You might create two
global fields, e.g. (some simplified/modified code of mine):
var blueMarkers = new Array();
var redMarker;
Then, when creating the new markers, make sure to store them in the
appropriate fields:
// Creation of blue markers
for(var i = 0; i < events.length; i++) {
var tempMarker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(events[i].Latitude,
events[i].Longitude),
title: events[i].Name,
map: jMap
});
//Here you can do some other stuff with the created marker if you
want to
// Push the marker into your array
blueMarkers.push(tempMarker);
}
// Creating the red marker
redMarker = new google.maps.Marker({ ... });
Then repositioning the red on is fairly simple:
redMarker.setPosition(<new position as LatLng object>);
And for finding the closest neigbour, simply iterate through your
blueMarkers array, calculate the distance of each marker to your redMarker
and pick the one with the smallest distance (here's how you do it:
http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/geometry.html#Distance).
Then, if you have e.g. blueMarkers[42] as the closest match, do the
following (assuming map is your google.maps.Map object):
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
bounds.extend(redMarker.getPosition());
bounds.extend(blueMarkers[42].getPosition());
map.fitBounds(bounds);
This should work.
