I am writing an ASP.NET page to allow a user to enter a zip code and

only the locations which are within the given radius are returned

Google Maps API to further filter them based upon driving distance

1) i want to add a 'Click Here' link in the info window that pops up

how do i do this please? If i have the website in my database, how
would i call that to the link or do i do it in a different way?
2) My map is at [link]

one example, the url [link]
is mentioned which produces a blue marker without dot)
However, the static API allows one to use various predefined markers
