Question

I have on my page a map on the left with about 40 points and the list of these 40 points on the right.
So you know, when you click on a point on the map, the “info window” is displayed where you can see some information about it.
I can’t find how I can simply open the “info window” on the map by making a “hover” on the corresponding link, and consequently close all the other info windows.

Does anybody have an idea about this?

Answer 1

All you have to is simply bind mouseover event into your marker and then info balloon will appear.

GEvent.addListener(marker, "mouseover", function() {
      marker.openInfoWindowHtml(html);
}); 

There is an example page here
Also know that for better explanation of how map coding works on google always check the documentation first.

Hope this helps
