I'm using Mike Williams' EGeoXml extension to help automate the open of an infowindow when a map page loads (the map is populated from a kml file). I'm using the parsed event in GEvent.addlistener so that the simulated "click" happens after all of the markers have been loaded. After some fiddling, I've got this working on a site under development.
The problem is that after the first load of a particular map page the automatic open infowindow behaviour fails to get triggered. (In other words, if the user navigates to another page and then comes back to the previous map, they don't get the open infowindow). I can force it to happen by clearing my browser cache and reloading, or even just refreshing the page (Firefox 3.x). So I'm wondering if the parsed event is somehow cache aware, and if so if there is a way to retrigger the parse event. Or perhaps another way to get the infowindow to open without a user having to click on anything? An example map page is here: http://www.goodwill.ab.ca/site/manning-crossing/ Once loaded, you can navigate to the other map page by using the "Donation Location" and "Shopping location" dropdowns above the big "Give" and "Get" headers. As I say, the site is still under development and may very well have some validation issues for the time being.
