Centering Google Maps from a marker - google-maps-api-3

Im triying to create a map with a marker from a position taken from a database. I succeed creating the map using this tutorial. The problem is that i have to enter manually the center position when i create the map.
¿Is there a way to center the map using the marker?. The code that im using is the following:

Also my XML generated file looks like this:
<markers>
<marker Latitud="-33.449148" Longitud="-70.552886"/>
</markers>
Thanks a lot!

I used this in an app after adding the marker. Might help you.
bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
bounds.extend(marker.position);
if (!bounds.isEmpty())
map.panTo(bounds.getCenter());
Original idea was to find the center of a bunch of markers, so this might be overkill.

Google Maps API Clustering nothing no map

I have been racking my head on this for hours and can not seem to get this to work. When this code gets ran nothing shows on the map, I have confirmed that the markerlist array is being populated into the DOM. Nothing is being shown on the map though. Any help would be great! Thanks!

You are populating the markerclusterer before the markerlist is populated, you need to do it inside the downloadUrl callback function:
downloadUrl("phpsqlajax_genxml.php", function(data) {;
var xml = data.responseXML;
var markers = xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var type = markers[i].getAttribute("type");
var vehid = markers[i].getAttribute("vehid");
var point = new google.maps.LatLng(
markers[i].getAttribute("lat"),
markers[i].getAttribute("lng"));
var html = "<b>VehID:</b>"+vehid;
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({position: point,});
markerlist.push(marker);
}
var mc = new MarkerClusterer(map, markerlist);
});

any help whoul be appreciated. thanks for all your helps.
Your markers do not have a "name" property.
titles += yazmarkers[i].name + "\n";
You can add one by creating them like this
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
name: name,
map: map,
position: point,
icon: icon.icon,
shadow: icon.shadow
});
Warning: While this works with the API at present, it is not documented behavior, you may want to use the "title" property instead, which is documented and has the benefit of appearing on the Marker as a tooltip on mouseover.

markerclusterer limits

Hi this is my first post here..
I have been playing around with google maps trying to make a list of campsites in France.
I have got to the point of reading an xml file of the data
Loading the map and clustering the results and it all works but very slow.
Q1 Is there a limit on the number of markers you can render even using the clusterer (there are >7000 records at the moment)
Q2
Is there anything obviously wrong with the code I have so far:

This article may help. A tile based solution (FusionTables, KmlLayer, or a server based custom map) will render more quickly than native Google Maps API v3 objects, even with clustering. You may be seeing the transfer and processing time of the xml file.

count markers displayed on map after zoom in and out

I am using google-maps-utility-library-v3.
I am trying to zoom in and zoom out, if the dot is not in screen anymore, I want to see count 0.
But it doesn't work. If I comment out mgr.addMarkers(markers,5); It works.... But it will always be 0 because no maker is managed by the manager.
Could someone tell me why?

You appear to be using the MarkerManager before it is fully initialized. Here's an updated section of your code to fix the issue:
var markers = [];
markers.push(marker);
var mgr = new MarkerManager(map);
google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(mgr, 'loaded', function(){
mgr.addMarkers(markers, 5);
mgr.refresh();
});
