I need to make something happen when any google maps marker is clicked on.

  • 0

I need to make something happen when any google maps marker is clicked on. Im using the demo from this link as a starting point:

http://gmap3.net/examples/tags.html

UPDATE – ive tried the following: 

$.each(markers, function(i, marker){
  marker.click(function(){  
     alert('alert');
  });
});

$.each(markers, function(i, marker){
  $(marker).click(function(){  
     alert('alert');
  });
});

UPDATE Ive tried adding this middle section to existing code:

        $.each(markers, function(i, marker){
            marker.setMap( checked ? map : null);

           //added code begins
            $(marker).click(function(){ 
                 alert('dfd');
              });
           //added code ends

        });

    Note that the OP is asking about doing this using the GMAP3 library, which is a jQuery plugin library that adds an API layer on top of the Google Maps layer. it is absolutely correct to say that the Google API is to use google.maps.addListener, but I think that the OP wants something that’s closer to the GMAP3 example using addMarkers, but listening to the click event. With that in mind, I modified the example from GMAP3 and changed the mouseenter event to the click event and got rid of the mouseleave event.

    For those wanting to do further playing, I created a jsFddle of this example.

    Here’s the source:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
    <style>
     #map {
      width: 400px;
      height: 400px;
  }
</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false">  </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://gmap3.net/js/gmap3-4.1-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#map').gmap3({
            action: 'init',
            options: {
                center: [46.578498, 2.457275],
                zoom: 5
            }
        }, {
            action: 'addMarkers',
            markers: [
            {
                lat: 48.8620722,
                lng: 2.352047,
                data: 'Paris !'},
                {
                    lat: 46.59433,

                        ],
                        marker: {
                            options: {
                                draggable: false
                            },
                            events: {
                                click: function(marker, event, data) {
                                    var map = $(this).gmap3('get'),
                                    infowindow = $(this).gmap3({

                                        infowindow.open(map, marker);
                                        infowindow.setContent(data);
                                    } else {
