You can download Mike's example.xml file used to fill out the infoWindow from his web site http://econym.org.uk/gmap/example.xml This is a simple xml file, you can format the xml file as you want, however you wil need some javascript knowledge to parse the data in the xml file to suit your needs.
I noticed that your original post links to a web page containing an embedded My Map. Are you trying to switch from this to an API-based map? Again, you will need javascript knowledge to accomplish this. Embedded My Maps do not have as much flexibility to change their behavior, specifically, I am not sure if you could make the direction search results open in a different window as you asked. See if there is a parameter that will accomplish this in this list http://mapki.com/wiki/Google_Map_Parameters#Directions On Jan 2, 2:40 pm, Julie <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm not familiar with XML yet, I only learned HTML and CSS.
