That will only work if you do it in the createClickablePolyline function and dynamically create the link inside the function. If you do it outside of that function gpolylines.length-1 will always point to the last polyline in your xml (or be zero). gpolylines[0] will always be the first polyline in your xml. gpolylines[1] will always be the second polyline, etc. If you don't want to count on the order of the xml, you can change the gpolylines array (or create new array) to be an associative array indexed with an "id" that you define in your xml. -- Larry > > then it should work... > > but the link info at the bottom left there in firefox tells me that > "+poly_num+" is not getting substituted for a number (as it does in > your working example, Larry) and the error console tells me that the \ > in \"click\" is illegal. > > so I'm obviously leaving out some important bit of code, but being > that I'm trying not to create a dynamically generated sidebar (rather > have a set of static links) I can't see what I'm missing out on, or if > I can in fact do this. > > any ideas HUGELY appreciated. > > Lucas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
