Google map geoXml infowindow

Question

Hi,

I have a KML with a route which I display on Google Maps via the GGeoXml. Because I want to have Placemarks from the KML in a sidebar (next to the map) I have created a KMl parser which displays them (I don't want to use the geoxml).

I've successfully created the sidebar which interacts with the map. The only problem is that i don't want to recreated the Infowindow on the map (from the sidebar) I want to use the existing one, which is generated from GGeoXml. How can i open it from the sidebar??? If not possible can I disable the GGeoXml infowindow and use the one from the sidebar??

Here's the code (this is just a concept code, not a final version):

$(document).ready(function() {

map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas")); 
map.addControl(new GLargeMapControl());
map.setCenter(new GLatLng(***,***), 11); 
map.addControl(new GLargeMapControl());

function displayPoint(marker, index){
    map.setCenter( new GLatLng(marker.lng, marker.lat) ); 
    map.panTo( map.getCenter() );
    map.openInfoWindow( map.getCenter() );
}

var MapIt = function( file ){
    map.clearOverlays();
    geoXml = new GGeoXml("http://***/kml/" + file + ".kml");
    geoXml.gotoDefaultViewport(map);

    var listener = GEvent.addListener(geoXml, "load", function() {
        map.setCenter(geoXml.getDefaultCenter(), 11);
           map.addOverlay(geoXml);     

        GEvent.removeListener(listener);
    });

    var markers = [];
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: 'parse.php?route=' + file,
        dataType: "json",
        success: function(data){
            $.each(data, function(j, point){
                markers[j] = point;
            });

            $(markers).each(function(i,marker){
                $("<li />")
                    .html(marker.name +" "+ i)
                    .click(function(){
                        displayPoint(marker, i);
                    })
                    .appendTo("#list");

                GEvent.addListener(marker, "click", function(){
                    displayPoint(marker, i);
                });
            });
        }
    });

}


var ShowTrail = function( file ){

    MapIt(file);

    $("#histogram").empty();
    $('<img />').attr('src','http://***/kml/' + file + '.png').appendTo("#histogram");
}



$("a.route").click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    ShowTrail( $(this).attr("rel") );
});

  });

Thanks in advance!
