6,364 PointsAdding info window in JQuery(customizing googlemaps)
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Here's the question "On the next line, in app.js, use "google.maps.event.addListener()" with "marker" as the first argument, "click" as the second, and then an anonymous function as the third."
var mapOptions = {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(28.42, -81.58),
zoom: 18,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE
};
var mapElement = document.getElementById("map");
var theMap = new google.maps.Map(mapElement, mapOptions);
var markers = new Array();
var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
var geocoderOptions = {address: "Magic Kingdom, Disney World"};
var markerImage;
var infoWindow;
geocoder.geocode(
geocoderOptions,
function(results, status) {
if(status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({map: theMap, position: results[0].geometry.location});
markers.push(marker);
bounds.extend(results[0].geometry.location);
theMap.fitBounds(bounds);
infoWindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({content: "Magic Kingdom"});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, click, function(){})
}
}
)

29,275 PointsYour lines of code should be right after:
var marker
Also:
click
In:
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, click, function(){})
Should be a string, last try putting a semi colon at the end of:
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, click, function(){})
Hope that helps.

11,264 PointsI have this and cannot proceed:
var infoWindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({content: "Magic Kingdom"});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "click", function(){
infoWindow.open(map, marker)
});

19,379 PointsYou do not need the infoWindow.open(map, marker) ...check to see if you have it on line 17, it should be on line 27.
