I'm coding a website with Google Maps. I add a bunch of markers to the map and to each of those an infoWindow that is activated by clicking on the marker. Was working late 1/14 and early 1/15 (5 AM ish), but by 11:00 AM it wasn't working. I changed it to simply alert() when a marker was clicked and that didn't work either. The Google page explaining infoWindows has an example map (https://developers-dot-devsite-v2-prod.appspot.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/infowindow-simple) and it doesn't work either. My code and the Google example work on Chrome and IE. I did all the restart with add-ons disabled, restarted Firefox fresh, got rid of add-ons to no avail. Please help! I love using Firefox, but will be unable to if this isn't resolved. Thank you, Alan

I also forgot to mention that I had rebooted (Windows10) yesterday to no avail. But the power went out sometime this morning, so I had to boot it again today. Guess what? It works now! Why????? I don't know, but I guess I'll run with it.

Forgot to mention that I ran debugger and no exceptions or problems would show. I could see the marker objects had values as did the infoWindow objects. Sure seems like the click just isn't getting down to the code anymore...
