I wrote "You could add the polygon to its marker as a property", and
what that means, (in pseudo-code), is:
var poly = createPolygon( param1,param2, ...);
map.addOverlay(poly);
poly.hide();
var marker = createMarker( param1,param2, ...);
map.addOverlay(marker);
marker.myPolygon = poly;
function createPolygon( param1,param2, ...){
var poly = new GPolygon( .... );
return poly;
}
function createMarker( param1,param2, ...){
var marker = new GGMarker( .... );
return marker;
}
The marker object now has a **property** called myPolygon, which holds
your GPolygon object.
Then in the click event handler you can access the correct polygon
with
marker.myPolygon.show();
