I've put together the code below to load marker data from my SQL database which correctly shows all of the information held.
I'd like to now include a drop down menu that shows the markers by their 'Location Name' and when the user selects the location the associated marker bounces. I know from some of the information that I've found that this is a sidebar? Could someone perhaps please point me in the right direction as to how I would go about adapting my code to include this.

Here's an idea:
Associate each location name with the link in the drop down menu.
Store the marker for each location.
When you click a link from the drop down menu, retrieve the marker associated with that location and simply call a function that animates it:
....
<!-- assuming this is an item from the menu -->
Location Name
....
The script:
<script type="text/javascript">
function animate(element) {
var marker = getMarkerByName(element.title);
marker.setAnimation(google.maps.Animation.BOUNCE);
setTimeout(function() { marker.setAnimation(null); }, 200);
}
function getMarkerByName(name) {
// retrieve and return the marker from where you stored it
}
</script>
...
Something like that
UPDATE:
There is basically no change... when you click the link, highlight it and call the animate function.
For highlighting the correct link on marker click, "listen" for click on each marker:
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function(event) {
// animate marker
// highlight the link associated with the marker.
});

Hi I've been working on this realtime gps tracker but I can't get beyond an error, I think it has something to do with making "map" a global variable .
What happens is, I am using gps cordinates that are loaded via ajax from an xml file and parsed into an array, but it seems I can't display the markers.

I am a beginner at google maps.
I am trying to toggle google map markers based on there type.
When I unchecked the check-box the marker disappears and upon checking it again the markers do not appears back on the map.
I have tried changing setmap to setvisible in toggleGroup function but that also did not worked .

Your issue:
You are mixing 2 different things here: getMap() and getVisible().
How to use:
To render a marker on the map, use:
marker.setMap(map); // where "map" is your map instance
To remove a marker from the map:
marker.setMap(null);
To show a hidden marker:
marker.setVisible(true);
To hide a marker:
marker.setVisible(false);
How to fix:
You should adapt your toggleGroup function accordingly.
Details:
marker.setMap(null);
marker.setVisible(true); // marker will not be shown since it's not on the map anymore
im currenty undataking a project which includes a google map API!im loading markers on the map using mysql from my database. now what am trying to accomplish is something like this i have seen before http://www.tanesco.co.tz/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=155
I want to create a link on the displayed table which when clicked it opens up an info window on the map....I completely have no idea where to start

Thank you all in advance
You create markers like
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
title:"Your title"
});
create links which on click trigger
infowindow.open(map,marker);
thats all i guess.
EDIT: You could identify which marker needs to be shown by href-parameter
i'm trying to figure out the code shown of this page with the V2 https://google-developers.appspot.com/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/examples/streetview-data?hl=es for the V3 of googlemaps but i can't refresh the position of the orange icon when navigating with the streetview.... any ideas?
Another point... how can i get the actual lat long when navigating on both views?
Here's some code :

Very strange. When I preview the file for my map on my local computer, it works just fine and the marker appears. However, when I upload to my web server, the marker disappears. The files are exactly the same...
Does anyone know what's going on?

It works for me in Chrome, Firefox and IE8. Perhaps you have a bad copy of the xml stuck in the browser cache (which browser are you using?)
Try using your own legitimate key. This line
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"
type="text/javascript"></script>
should look something more like this
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AacbdefglcdK7C2GHbQAmdkBID70Uppuf-D030&sensor=true">

You can apply for your own Google Maps API key on their home page. There are a few reasons why regular users are not allowed to publish using a default Google key because of situations concerning bandwidth, etc. Thus , companies with high volume have to pay to have a license for a Google Maps key, but for your use, a free key will probably work fine.
