The default infoWindow size is way too big for me. I want it to be much smaller can I can't figure out how to do it. I've tried setting a maxWidth parameter on my infoWindow constructor like this
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({'maxWidth':'10px'});
and setting the CSS width like this
<style type="text/css">
#infoWindow {
width: 10px;
}
</style>
but that only seems to change the size of the text wrapping, not the actual box. How do I change the size of the infoWindow box?
Here is my code.

The native infoWindow has a minimum size. If it is to big for you, you need to look at using an alternative solution like infoBubble or InfoBox
your CSS section doesn't do anything because var infoWindow is not the same as <div id="infoWindow">
The documentation says:
maxWidth: Maximum width of the infowindow, regardless of content's width. This value is only considered if it is set before a call to
open. To change the maximum width when changing content, call close,
setOptions, and then open.
Also what Larry, (geocodezip), said. (he types faster than me) ;-)

What's I'm doing wrong???
can anyone help please??
I solved my problem !
I just added this line of code to add my API Key:
<script src="//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp&sensor=false&key=MY_KEY" async="" defer="defer" type="text/javascript"></script>
I am using two Google maps with set sizes inside a single Bootstrap row split into two "col-md-6". The problem is that I can't get the maps to centre within the columns.
I've tried placing the maps within another div, and applying a class such as:
.centre {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
I have used this approach on the containing div and the map canvas itself.
I have also tried the Bootstraps center-block class.
Why won't this work? Is it because the map is generated by the script? However I also used some other script widget which I could centre no problem.
Here is my code:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="center-block">

Works fine by me: http://codepen.io/ruchiccio/pen/LZZJaP
All you need is text-align:center on the divs housing the google maps.
Kinda of new to Google mashups. I have an KML on our Webserver (http://www.madisonareampo.org/maps/BRT_National.kmz) to draw on Google Maps.
I have a Google Maps mashup where I want an infowindow to display the contents of the KML description field through a click event. The KML file was exported from a geodatabase using ArcGIS.
Nothing is being returned when I click on a marker in the KML file.

InfoWindows needs a position attribute and you have to call open(map) to bind it to the map. Here's a working version of your code :
google.maps.event.addListener(layer, 'click', function(kmlEvent) {
showInContentWindow(kmlEvent.latLng, kmlEvent.featureData.description);
});
function showInContentWindow(position, text) {
var content = "<div style='margin-left:-20px;border:2px dotted #897823;'>" + text + "</div>";
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: content,
position: position
})
infowindow.open(map);
}
This is a drop down Div - which works with everything except GoogleMap.
I get half the map showing or maybe a 1/4 of it... When I get rid of the div's all works fine... Or is there a workaround without div's? Ideas... I tried declaring table, p etc... No luck...
Javascript Drop Down Code and Div calls
<script type="text/javascript">
function showElement(layer){
var myLayer = document.getElementById(layer);
if(myLayer.style.display=="none"){
myLayer.style.display="block";
myLayer.backgroundPosition="top";
} else {
myLayer.style.display="none";
}
}
</script>
<div class=catlist>
<table border=0 cellpadding=4>
<tr>
<td valign=middle><img src="images/plus.png" onclick="javascript:showElement('ed')"></td>
<td valign=middle><a href="#" onclick="javascript:showElement('ed')"><b>Edit GPS
Map</b></a></td>
</tr></table>
</div>
<div class="qlist" id="ed" style="display:none;">
<div id="map" style="width: 500px; height: 250px;"></div>
</div>
Adding the Google Javascript...
This is the actual Google Maps Javascript...
Cold Fusion Plots the # markers...
This works fine outside of divs...
Code suggested above works to display the correct map interface...
But the centering of the plot is not working...
And marker shows at top left corner with above code provided...
<div id="map" style="width: 500px; height: 250px;"></div>
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var locations = [
["#bsname#", #gpslat#, #gpslong#, #busid#],
];
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 15,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(#gpslat#, #gpslong#),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var marker, i;
for (i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locations[i][1], locations[i][2]),
map: map
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i) {
return function() {
infowindow.setContent(locations[i][0]);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
})(marker, i));
}
</script>
The changes I made were:
triggering a resize when the div is expanded
centering the map after the resize
making map and locations variables global.

Making the map resize after you show the div should work:
From the docs: "Developers should trigger this event on the map when the div changes size:" google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize') .
EDIT - I'll be more specific, please try again
function showElement(layer){
var myLayer = document.getElementById(layer);
if(myLayer.style.display=="none"){
myLayer.style.display="block";
myLayer.backgroundPosition="top";
// *** add the trigger here ***
google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize')
} else {
myLayer.style.display="none";
}
}

You need to set dimensions for your map container, try this:
<style type="text/css">
#map {
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
}
</style>
