javascript - Google Maps v3: need multiple draggable markers to update HTML input fields

I'm working on a project using Google Maps v3 that will allow users to drag and drop randomly placed markers (quantity, coordinates, and labels generated with php).

I would like the latitude and longitude of moved markers to update html input fields on the page. Unfortunately, I do not know enough about js to give each marker a unique identity in an efficient way by using arrays and/or 'variable variables'.

Here is my code thus far:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
<style type="text/css">
  html { height: 100% }

  #map_canvas { height: 100% }
</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src=""></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

    var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(39.3939,-119.861);
    var myOptions =

      zoom: 17,
      center: latlng,
      mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE
    };
    var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
        myOptions);

    // Set Border Coords
    var BorderCoords = 
    [
        new google.maps.LatLng(39.3952726888,-119.85922848),

Here is the answer. Define a custom id based on your marker properties and based on that access yout input field ids:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />

      mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE
    };
    var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
        myOptions);

    // Set Border Coords
    var BorderCoords =

Well one of the beautiful things about JavaScript is that you can assign objects fields on the fly. One thing you could do would give each marker a name or an id. To do that you simply say:

marker.id = whatever;

Then you can get the value of that like you would any property by calling marker.id;

That is probably the most efficient way of giving them unique id's. In your eventhandler for the dragend you could then just do and if-then-else to check which marker it was and update the related input fields.
