Hi Guys I am using Google Maps Android API v2. I loaded the Map and placed few Marker. I wanted to display a HTML URL in the "infoWindow" but Google seems to suggest its not possible https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/infowindows#custom_info_windows. can it be done using "OnInfoWindowClickListener"? So that i open a dialogue box using this listener which contains a HTML URL?

It is not possible to do that via html, but if you put view with `OnClickListener`, you can achieve that using method from an answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14123243/google-maps-api-v2-custom-infowindow-like-in-original-android-google-maps – MaciejGórski Nov 12 '13 at 14:44

You can display pretty much whatever you want in an info window (though I have not tried anything that uses a SurfaceView). You cannot respond to clicks on anything other than then entire info window.
can it be done using "OnInfoWindowClickListener"? So that i open a dialogue box using this listener which contains a HTML URL?
You are welcome to do whatever you wish when the user clicks on an info window.

That was my problem, i.e. not being able to click the URL inside infoWindow. Could you help me with some sample codes on onInfoWindowClicklistener ? – rajat bhivania Nov 12 '13 at 12:27

@rajatbhivania: https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-omnibus/tree/master/MapsV2/Popups is a sample app that has an `OnInfoWindowClickListener`. In my case, I just display a `Toast`, but you could `show()` a `DialogFragment`, or `startActivity()`, or execute a `FragmentTransaction`, or pretty much whatever you want. – CommonsWare Nov 12 '13 at 12:45
