Javascript Closure With Google.maps.geocoder::geocode

I'm using google.maps javascript API v3. I need to translate a set of civic addresses to markers on a google map with 'click' listeners. When the user clicks on the marker in the m

Solution 1:

It seems that the solution was to split everything in separate functions.

functionshowAddress() {

    //geocoder = new Geocoder();for (var i = 0; i<addresses.length; i++)
    {
        var address = addresses[i];
        var url = urls[i];

        findAddress(address,url);
        pausecomp(400);
      }
}

functionfindAddress(address,url)
{
    geocoder.geocode(
        { 'address' : address },
        function(result, status) {
            var marker;
            if(status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
                marker = new google.maps.Marker({
                    position: result[0].geometry.location,
                    map: map,
                    title:"Longueuil"
                });

            }
            attachUrl(marker, url);
        }
    );
}

functionattachUrl(marker, url)
{
    google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function(event){
        alert(url);
        window.open(url);
    },false);
}

My guess is that function calls create persistent copies of the values held by the variables and not merely pointers to them.
