Campus Map with search

I've gone through all the wealth of knowledge on the web to create an
interactive campus map. What I've come up with is this:
http://theartofdawn.com/websites/campusmap2.html

But I'm aiming to make a map more like this: http://www.uci.edu/campusmap/map.php
I'm not trying to be exactly like this, but the features that I'm
trying to integrate the tabbed sidebar, a search bar to search for
locations on the campus, and to hide the markers until they are
clicked on the sidebar.

I'm not expecting anyone to type out the code for me, but just a point
in the right direction or a website to look at that shows how to
create something like this.
I've searched through mapwiki, http://econym.org.uk/gmap/, these
forums, and http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial.html
without finding anything to help me understand what I'm looking for.

Any help would be appreciated, sort of have been banging my head on
the keyboard trying to solve these problems.
