I'm not sure what you were expecting those attributes to do. Guessing, you have some utility script that processes HTML tags with those attributes. That kind of script doesn't work with infowindow content easily, because the infowindow content doesn't exist at all when the page is loaded and the utility script is run to search for the special attributes. You'd need some way to prompt the magic script to do its thing after the infowindow has been created and populated. Search this group for 'lightbox' for an example of utility script needing this kind of care. > Is it not possible to just strip out spaces and special characters from the > url completely and still link to a marker? > > so this title of a marker is: > > Jimmy's Place > > url encoded is: > > http://creativemaps.vism.ag/1b.htm?Jimmysplace Yes, that's perfectly possible and could save pain.

So long as you write your code to compare the input from the URL parameter with a similarly-processed version of your original data -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
