Javascript, Change google map marker color

Question

May I know a way to change the Google Map marker color via Javascript.. I am new at this and any help would be much appreciated, Thank you.

I used the following code

Answer 1

you can use the google chart api and generate any color with rgb code on the fly:

example: marker with #ffffd color:

http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chst=d_map_pin_letter&chld=%E2%80%A2|ffffd

include as stated above with

 var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
    position: marker,
    title: 'Hello World',
    icon: 'http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chst=d_map_pin_letter&chld=%E2%80%A2|ffffd'
});
