Dynamic Map Code challenge 7/7

On dynamic mapping i get to challenge 7/7 and it says task 2 is no longer passing, when task 2 was the api key so i dont get it.

    <div id="map">
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyAn8fk75K8kCdW6pQ4B7yoBHJNrUbleieY&sensor=false">   </script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    var mapOptions = {
    center: new google.maps.LatLng(28.42, -81.58),
    zoom: 18, 
    mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE
  };

  var mapElement= document.getElementById("map");
  var theMap = new google.maps.Map(mapElement, mapOptions);
</script>

</div>

Where's your closing div tag?

I had mine below the JavaScript and it didn't work (I guess the moral is keep all JavaScript at the bottom of your file?)

Once I moved my closing div immediately below my opening div all was fine, resulting in code starting...

<div id="map">
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" etc

Does this help?

Thanks Ben,

it did help me.
