Let me say I am still fairly new to google maps and javascript. i've been mixing together the google store locator tutorial with some other stuff. So far, I am using marker clusterer plus (link), basically the same as marker clusterer for google maps api v3 but with some added functionality like mouse overs and stuff like that. I'm trying to get an info window to come up when you mouse over a cluster.
working demo here. here is my full index code:

Basically it comes down to this part, which I may just be putting in the wrong place:
var contentString = 'This is an example';
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: contentString
});
google.maps.event.addListener(markerCluster, "mouseover", function (c) {
infowindow.open(map,marker);
I thought I was doing the info window correctly, but it isn't coming up. I know the mouseover works because the commented out alert works when i test it. any ideas what I am doing wrong?

infoWindow.Open has two overloads
infoWindow.Open(map, marker)
infoWindow.Open(map)
Since you wanto to add it to a cluster (not a marker) you should use the second one
You must set the position getting the center of the cluster
google.maps.event.addListener(markerCluster, "mouseover", function (mCluster) {
infowindow.content += "<div>Something<\/div>";
infowindow.setPosition(mCluster.getCenter());
infowindow.open(map);
});
I know it works because I just did it
