The title property of markers expects a string not html. As far as I've seen Google generally and consistently uses utf-8 characters, so the easiest solution would be using the encoded utf-8 charset too.
But of course you can also use the characters that you commonly use - as far as Javascript supports the charset. In this case you'd have to tell Javascript which charset to use and use it accordingly, for example <script type="text/javascript" charset=iso-8859-1"> On Jul 24, 1:07 am, Team Fauna <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone, we're new to the group and would like to have a good > start here. > > We've encountered a problem while creating a marker object. > > var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ > position: myLatLng, > map: map, > icon: image, > title: ' Strángë Chärácters' > }); > > When writing the title like that, all of the foreign language > characters will appear with a ? sign inside a small square.
