I think this should be easy, but I just can't work it out. I am building a multi-layer map using cartodb (own opensource server). Layers display well. but I have two problems. 1) the layer select drop down box is not displaying 2) I can't get infowindows to on lphoto layer.

I have a template at the top and have tried adding

photos.infowindow.set('template', $('#infowindow_template').html());

But this just creates an error. Any suggestions on how to get this to work?

I have modified a little bit the structure of your code in order to improve legibility and functionality. As mentioned at the begining of the html, I have used a block from a colleague that has all the elements (infowindows, tooltips, legend, fixed boxes...) added to a createLayer CartoDB.js map.

Fist, have a look at the end of the block and observe how I added the two layers to the map. You used two variables, but I have used a kind of "sandwich" methodology. Then you can get the sublayer you want to interact with, using the getSubLayer method. Finally, in order to add an infowindows you should get as parameters the map object, the layer and the fields used in the infowindows template.

          });
      });
    });
    </script>

  </body>
</html>

Note: you should customize your title, the infowindows template and this last interaction.
