clickable sidebar markerclusterer google map api v.3

Google map API v.3 is used. Attached with markerclusterer.js

I would like to make a map that show the cluster of markers. (Done!)

When I click on the marker, an infowindow would be shown. (Done!)

A sidebar is made next to the map. When click on it, an infowindow would be shown for relevant marker. (Failed, why?)

Please help me take a look at the code of javascript and html.

var hk_markers = [

    infowindow.close();
    });

showAll();
document.getElementById("side_bar").innerHTML = side_bar_html;
markers=[];

}

Here is the html file.

Solution

  • You are clearing the markers array after setting up all the sidebar entries to use it:

    showAll();
document.getElementById("side_bar").innerHTML = side_bar_html;
markers=[];

    Don't do that.
