Thanks. I tried that no luck; here is the edited code:
var country_id = '';
var country_name = '';
function createMarker(map, countries) {
for (var i = 0; i < countries.length; i++) {
if(countries[i].latitude != null && countries[i].longitude !=
null) {
var myLatlng = new
google.maps.LatLng(countries[i].latitude,countries[i].longitude);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
icon: '/images/map-dot.png',
title: countries[i].name
});
country_id = countries[i].id;
country_name = countries[i].name;
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
getData(country_id, country_name);
});
}
}
}
