Answer 1

The above answer is not very intuitive though - as Greg said.

When you add an event to an object, that object is passed down so you can access it by "this" within the closure. If you replaced "marker.value" with "this.value" your problem would have been resolved. If you need to pass down more stuff, you tie it to the object and pass it down:

marker.a = 1
marker.b = 2
marker.c = 3

Within the closure this.a will be 1 and so on..
