I am parsing data from a XML file that plots the markers location and that part works great. I am trying to add information to the info box via HTML with info from the XML file. This is how it is suppose to look.

But if you go to my test page and click on a marker it doesn't show up that way.

This is the code I have that I am trying to produce the info box.

I think it has something to do with the last function at the end but that is where I am stuck because I know it isn't right and I have tried everything. I am still in the process of learning the new Gmaps as I haven't used them in years.
Any suggestions or advice would be great!
-Thanks!
