Google Maps: Set Center, Set Center Point and Set more points

Try using this code for v3:

gMap = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map')); 
gMap.setZoom(13);      // This will trigger a zoom_changed on the map
gMap.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng(37.4419, -122.1419));
gMap.setMapTypeId(google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP);
