Calling Google Maps Infowindow.open Causes Website To Scroll Down To The Infowindow

I am pretty sure this was not the default behaviour for Google Maps API for quite some time, but it must have changed in the meantime. I modified Fiddle provided by google: https:/

Solution 1:

The default behavior of InfoWindow.open() is to have the browser focus on the element. This can be changed by using InfoWindowOpenOptions.

infowindow.open({anchor: marker, shouldFocus: false});

instead of:

infowindow.open(map, marker);
