Customizing Google Maps - Info Window not working

On stage 5 of "building an interactive website" and I'm having trouble with the Google Maps Javascript API section. I've followed Andrew's code, hosted my site using Anvil, but when I load the locations.html page, clicking on the markers on the map brings up nothing. My JS console brings the following error, if this is associated with it:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token : chrome-extension://kchdfagjljmhgapoonapmfngpadcjkhk/js/jquery-1.11.0.min.map:1

I've compared my code to the project files and they are identical, so I'm really not sure what's causing this error...maybe a change in the Maps API since this track was made? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

This is related to JavaScript source maps. I've seen it discussed before: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17849006/hide-jquery-map-errors-in-google-chrome-developer-tools

Make sure Chrome is up-to-date (should be since it auto-updates). If not, then you can turn off JavaScript source maps: https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/docs/settings

Totally stumped. Could you try an disable some of your chrome extensions...there maybe something interfering with your jQuery.

Actually Dave McFarland has found a solution...
