I think i've narrowed down the problem to this line of code:
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({content: label});
i can input 'aptinfo' with option 2 of the XML file above and the content
shows up, but i can't do this:
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({content: label, aptinfo});
without throwing an error. i just want my label and information to
display... argh.
