Google Maps & Animations

[lemonkiwis]

AFAICT this only occurs in IE 7/8 - didn't test 6 or 9. Whenever I load a Google map (just a standard Google map link) in the modal, with either animation, portions of the map don't render properly. There seems to be portions that don't get loaded for whatever reason and those sections end up being transparent. Loading with animation: 'none' works fine.

If you change the size of the div containing the map (map_canvas in the examples) you have to call AFAIK google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize'); where map is var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), options); after the element has it's final size.
