google.load('maps','3') throws sensor error, providing {sensor:true|false} makes no difference #422

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Load jsapi loader
2. call google.load('maps','3') or google.load('maps','3',{sensor:false})

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
GMaps API v3 should load, but instead, an alert displays explaining that the 
sensor parameter 
must be provided.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
jsapi v1
GMaps API v3
FF 3.6.3
osx 10.6.3

Please provide any additional information below.
Hey, guys! Noticed this the other day. Looked in the jsapi and found that there 
is no mention of 
the sensor param. Confirmed that the sensor param is not passed in the GMaps v3 
src url. 
Probably should default to "false," but allow people to specify {sensor:"true"} 
in options arg.

Digging deep to forums brings a solution!

google.load("maps", "3", {other_params: "sensor=false"});

Works great.

Boy, don't know how I missed that. Thanks for the workaround, but the fact 
remains
that sensor is a required param and should probably be recognized as a 
standalone
option. Changing this to a suggestion, just for kicks.

Don't know how you missed that? It's nowhere to be found in the documentation. 
Very annoying!

Google Maps API is great for lots of things, but it has unexplainable missings 
like that!
