I am trying to make a map with multiple fusion table layers. Each fusion table layer will show the number of cartel-related homicides in a particular year (including the sum of all years). Since each layer has the same geometry, I need to let the user view one layer at a time. Is there a way to toggle each layer on/off using a radio button? I’ve searched for tutorials or examples for a few hours and have come up empty, so I’m hoping someone here can help.
Here is a link to a copy of the map: https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/csterling/web/cartel%20map/index%20-%20practice.html
Here is the code (sorry about the formatting)

Ok, I got it! Here’s my code in case others are having the same question:
