 * i would like to use [Plugin: Basic Google Maps Placemarks] with lightbox2 or 
   fancybox so that when the user clicks the marker instead of this google bubble
   a lightbox would open up on top of the page with the content in it.
    I have made
   a sketch with jquery fancybox and google maps to show somehow what i am aiming
   at : [http://mlh1407.com/back/customers/fb/projekter_med_tue/markers.html](http://mlh1407.com/back/customers/fb/projekter_med_tue/markers.html)–
   click show markers >> click on he marker >> a lightbox object/element should 
   apear on top of the map. – here´s some screenshots in case the link doesnt work

 * what i did was basically to add a eventlistener to the marker that calls the 
   lightbox with some parameters that can be changed ..
 * does anyone have an idea to how i can do this with the Basic Google Maps Placemarks
   plugin ?
 * it would indeed be a neat feature

 * I have mixed up a solution ,, dont know if it is any good
 * in core.php in the loadResources part add this
    wp_register_script( ‘fancy’, 
   plugins_url( ‘fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js’, __FILE__ ), array( ‘jquery’),
   self::VERSION, true ); wp_register_style( self::PREFIX .’style’, plugins_url(‘
   style.css’, __FILE__ ), false, self::VERSION, false ); and add this after the
   if( !is_admin() && $this->mapShortcodeCalled ) – part wp_enqueue_script(‘fancy’);
 * $params = array(
    ‘autoDimensions’ => ‘true’, ‘width’ => 640, ‘height’ => 480);
   wp_localize_script( ‘fancy’, ‘my_unique_name’, $params );
 * aaand in functions.js
    ad this $.fancybox( infowindowcontent, { }); $.fancybox.
   resize();
 * if you want to change the params from javascript i guess one could just write
   my_unique_name.pamName=newValue (my_unique_name.width=320) before you make the
   fancybox call ?
 * anyways … im no really a programmer – what do you think ?
