Thanks, this sounds like a plan.
I'm still struggling to get my head around this though so forgive my
ignorance.
I have added setMarkers to the callback like so:
var incidents = new Array();
$.getJSON('http://labs.unxposed.net/democraticvoiceburma/elections/
media/json/incidents.json', function(data) {
$.each(data.incident, function(i, incident) {
incidents.push([incident.Lat, incident.Lng,
incident.Title,
incident.Type, incident.Content, incident.Location, incident.Datetime,
incident.Author, incident.Zindex]);
});
// Add markers to map
setMarkers(map, incidents);
});
Looking at the initialize function I thought that map was already
defined globally at the top of the file?

Thanks again.
