That is a v2 map. You won't be able to use the code directly in a v3
map (but you can "port" it without too much trouble). If you are in a
rush, you should be able to use the code directly in a v2 map (you
would just need to get a key for what ever domain you want to put it
in).
All the lines that look like this:
var point = new GLatLng("33.5567142","-112.179291");
map.addOverlay(createMarker(point,"<infowindow
content>","info.png"));
would just need to be (not tested):
var point = new google.maps.LatLng("33.5567142","-112.179291");
createMarker(point,"<infowindow content>","info.png");
And then rewrite the createMarker function for v3.

What did you try (or perhaps I should ask: define "didn't work")?
A local copy of that page both displays markers and "works" (although
it reports a lot of access denied errors on some ie png fix htc file
in that domain).
