it isnt jsut HTML. anything i put in the description attribute field doesnt
show up on the marker. I renamed the attribute to aptinfo, that didnt work.

i tried to use the infowindow XML like that page suggested, and still
nothing.

maybe its in my page code?

  var infowindow;
  var map;

  function initialize() {
    var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(32.802955,-96.769923);
    var myOptions = {
      zoom: 11,
      center: myLatlng,
      mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
    }
    map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
myOptions);
    downloadUrl("moredata.xml", function(data) {
      var markers = data.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
      for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
        var latlng = new
google.maps.LatLng(parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lat")),

parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lng")));
        var marker = createMarker(markers[i].getAttribute("label"), latlng);

       }
     });
  }

  function createMarker(label, latlng) {
    var marker = new google.maps.Marker({position: latlng, map: map});
    google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "click", function() {
      if (infowindow) infowindow.close();
      infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({content: label});
      infowindow.open(map, marker);
    });
    return marker;
  }

XML option 1:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <markers>
     <marker lat="32.931831" lng="-96.817955" label="Marker One">
      <infowindow>Some stuff to display in the&lt;br&gt;First Info
Window</infowindow>
     </marker>
     <marker lat="32.925653" lng="-96.778015" label="Marker 2">
      <infowindow>Some stuff to display in the&lt;br&gt;First Info
Window</infowindow>
     </marker>
     <marker lat="32.650013" lng="-96.87962" label="Marker 3">
      <infowindow>Some stuff to display in the&lt;br&gt;First Info
Window</infowindow>
     </marker>
</markers>


XML option 2:
<markers>
  <marker name="Villa Piana" aptinfo="rent here" lat="32.931831"
lng="-96.817955"/>
  <marker name="Alexan City North" aptinfo="rent here" lat="32.925653"
lng="-96.778015"/>
  <marker name="West Virgina Park Apartments" aptinfo="rent here"
lat="32.650013" lng="-96.87962"/>
</markers>
