11,180 Pointscannot get through this last Task for google api
its on the build and interactive website course, Google maps integration badge, Adding a dynamic map objective, the last question (question no.7)
the task is : Set the "theMap" to a new google.maps namespaced "Map" object with the parameters of "mapElement" and "mapOptions"
everything seems to be ok but I keep getting the error that previous tasks are no longer passing, which doesnt make sense

29,762 PointsNot sure if that will work. I tried with a couple different browsers and on the iOS app, still no luck. For what its worth, the code you have, is correct. :)
