Using current code for google maps api i found on stackoverflow, i need to hide all markers except one clicked how can i do it?
Not even sure how to approach it?
I think it has to do with JS closures however not an expert on that.

];
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 10,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(-33.92, 151.25),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var marker, i;
for (i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locations[i][1], locations[i][2]),
map: map
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i) {
return function() {
infowindow.setContent(locations[i][0]);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
//hide marker clicked
marker.setVisible(false);
}
})(marker, i));
}
function hide_some_markers() {
alert("what to do here?");
}
</script>
</body>

EDIT: Currently on clicking marker it hides marker that was clicked, what i need to do is hide all markers except one that was clicked, when i click the map it should restore all hidden markers.
