This really nice but my markers has location with a search. So how can I get location info for each to an info box.
here is my code
var map;
var service;
var marker;
var infowindow;
function handleSearchResults(results, status)
{
console.log(results);
for (var i = 0; i<results.length; i++){
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: results[i].geometry.location,
map: map,
icon: 'Book-Red.png'
});
}

        }
        function performSearch()
        {
            var request = {
                bounds: map.getBounds(),
                name: "Kirjasto"
            }
            service.nearbySearch(request, handleSearchResults);
        }

        function initialise(location)
        {
            var mapholder = document.getElementById("mapholder");
                mapholder.style.height='500px';
                mapholder.style.width='100%';
                mapholder.style.margin='0px';
                mapholder.style.padding='0px';
            console.log.lacation;
            var currentLocation = new google.maps.LatLng(location.coords.latitude, location.coords.longitude);
            var mapOptions = {
                 center: currentLocation,
                 zoom: 13,
                 mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP

            };
                map = new google.maps.Map(mapholder,mapOptions);

                marker = new google.maps.Marker({
                position: currentLocation,
                map: map,
                title: 'Olet täällä'
            });


              google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
              infowindow.open(map,marker);
              });

                service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
                google.maps.event.addListener(map,'bounds_changed', performSearch);

            var circleOptions = {
                strokeColor: "#0000FF",
                strokeOpacity: 0.8,
                strokeWeight: 1.5,
                fillColor: "#0000FF",
                fillOpacity: 0.20,
                map:map,
                center: currentLocation,
                radius:2000
            };
                circle = new google.maps.Circle(circleOptions);


        }
        $(document).ready(function() {
            navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(initialise);
        });

I like the multiple info winodw . please help in on multiple hyperlink with multiple marker code.

it work for me, but I want to add a blue marker on the current position, so with those below I can location my current position:
function success(position)
{
var googleLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,
position.coords.longitude);
var mapOtn = {
zoom : 15,
center : googleLatLng,
maTyptId : google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}

var Pmap     = document.getElementById("map")

var map      = new google.maps.Map(Pmap, mapOtn);
addMarker(map, googleLatLng, "Devapp.com", "Hello! <br><br>Choose your Driver</br>");

}

function addMarker(map, googleLatLng, title, content){
var markerOptn = {
position : googleLatLng,
map : map,
title : title,
animation : google.maps.Animation.BOUNCE

};

var marker     =  new google.maps.Marker(markerOptn);

var infoWindow =  new google.maps.InfoWindow({ content: content, 
                                               position: googleLatLng});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "click", function(){

    infoWindow.open(map);
});

}

/Set multiple markers on my map/


/Set multiple markers on my map/

function fail(error)
{
var errorType = {
0: "Unknown Error",
1: "Permission denied by the user",
2: "Position of the user not available",
3: "Request timed out"
};

var errMsg = errorType[error.code];

if (error.code == 0 || error.code == 2) {
    errMsg = errMsg+" - "+error.message;
}
$("p").html(errMsg);

}

Please any help!

I am having a hard time figuring out a auto zoom on multiple markers map.
