Below is the code listed to set markers in Google Maps. But only one marker is being set whereas four markers should be set.

What is wrong with this code?

I was able to mark multiple points by altering how the points are marked. Points should be marked before being added to the map apparently. However I was unable to set multiple info windows. Only one info window is displayed no matter which marker is clicked. The udpated code is given below-

function setMarkers(map, locations) { for (var i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) { var location = locations[i]; if (location != undefined) { var latlngbounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(); var point = new google.maps.LatLng(location[1], location[2]);

                latlngbounds.extend(point);

                var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(location[1], location[2]);
                var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
                    position: myLatLng,
                    map: map,
                    title: location[3],
                    zIndex: location[0]
                });
                var content = "<a href='" + location[4] + "'><strong>" + location[3] + "</strong></a>";
                var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
                    content: content
                });

                var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
                    position: myLatLng,
                    map: map,
                    title: location[3]
                });
                google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function () {
                    infowindow.open(map, marker);
                });
            }

            map.setCenter(latlngbounds.getCenter());
        }
    }
