Get the Clicked marker in Google maps and send it to a function

I tried to make google maps for cities in jordan that will Show information about the city to the user when the marker clicked

My problem is When I tried to get the Marker that been clicked by the user ,it always send the last marker in the For-loop that instantiate the markers and give the information

The for-loop works will and Give each marker it's own title,label and give an event listener for each marker

How can I get the clicked marker ?

You need to associate the infowindow with the correct marker. One solution to that is function closure as demonstrated in the similar question: Google Maps JS API v3 - Simple Multiple Marker Example. For your code:

google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function(marker,i) {
 return function() {
  openNav();
  //changeText();
  // set the infowindow content for this marker (the function has closure on i)
  infowindow.setContent(info[i][1]+"");
  // open the infowindow on this marker (the function has closure on marker)
  infowindow.open(map, marker);
}}(marker,i));

proof of concept fiddle

code snippet:

function openNav() {
  document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "250px";
}

function closeNav() {
  document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "0";
}
var map;

function initMap() {
  map = new google.maps.Map(
    document.getElementById('map'), {
      zoom: 7,
      center: new google.maps.LatLng(31.9, 35.8),
      mapTypeId: 'terrain'

Try placing the listener in a function and pass the value you need 

  var myFunctinForListener = function(aMarker, aInfoWindow) {
      google.maps.event.addListener(aMarker, 'click', function() {
          openNav();
          //changeText();
          aInfoWindow.open(map, aMarker);
        });
  }



  ....


      for (var i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
        var coords = locations[i];
        var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(coords[0], coords[1]);
        var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
          position: latLng,
          map: map,
          label: info[i][0],
          title: info[i][0]
        });

        var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
          content: info[i][1] + ""
        });


        myFunctinForListener(marker, inforwinodow);


    .....
