On my Google map I plan to include a large amount of markers (30 to
50) in a small area. I need to hide or clear the markers when the map
is loaded to avoid confusing user and to avoid the page looking too
cluttered. So basically I only need the icons to appear when a user
hovers over or clicks on one of the sidebar entries.

Here is a link to my current map: http://geocities.com/middcc/google-map3.htm

To solve this problem I have been investigating the following
solutions: Markermanager and Mouseover. Unfortunately Markermanager
doesn’t seem to be ideal as it’s best suited for a huge number of
markers. The mouseover (another great tutorial at: 
http://econym.org.uk/gmap/mouseover.htm)
was my preferred solution as I could make the default icon blank and
make the mouseover icon real - but I cannot get it to work with
multiple sidebars, tabbed icons and XML.

Can anyone give me any pointers/help on how to hide the markers on
start-up and only make the markers visible when you hover over or
click on the sidebar entries? Here is a link to my map again:

Thanks for reading.
