Google Maps API v3: Gray Box, no map

Question

This works for me. You simply have to set zoom parameter:

UPDATE (by @user2652379): You need to set BOTH zoom and center options. Just zoom does not work.

        var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644);
        var mapOptions = 
        {
            zoom: 8,
            center:latlng,
            //backgroundColor: '#ff0000',
            mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
            //imageDefaultUI: true
        };
        var map = new google.maps.Map(mapDiv, mapOptions);
       // map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl());
       // map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
       // map.addMapType(ROADMAP);
       // map.setCenter(
       // new GLatLng(37.4419, -122.1419), 13);
    }
