Menu
I will really appreciate help for this.
My html v2 file with some temporary key works fine. I am getting locations from some XML, create different colors markers and add some URLs also from XML attributes in Info Window(not too much complicated). Now I need to migrate this to v3. I found some equivalents for functions from v2 but I didn't find for GDownloadUrl( for loading XML) and also GIcon(G_DEFAULT_ICON); Can someone please look at both of my codes and tell me how to change to make this works also in v3. I changed most of the things so if someone can see some error I will be thankful. Thanks in advance.

As you've noted GDownloadUrl() no longer exists in GMap V3. I'd recommend jQuery.get(url)
I posted an example How to parse xml file for marker locations and plot on map.
UPDATE: As @user1191860 points out below there is a utility for GMap V3 xmlparsing. I was not aware of it. AFAIK, no reason not to use it. You need to add
<script src="http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn-history/r28/trunk/xmlparsing/util.js"></script>
to your html page. Interesting that the author also includes a jQuery example
