In Chrome it fails in loadScript() on this line:
document.documentElement.firstChild.appendChild(script);
It turns out that the firstChild of document.documentElement in Chrome
is a Comment() object rather than a HTMLElement, and you can't
.appendChild a script to a Comment().
Perhaps you might try
document.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(sc
ript);
which appends the script to a HTMLHeadElement() rather than a Comment().
However, there have been various other problems reported from time to
time with own-code attempts to load the Maps API on demand. A safer
solution is to use the Google AJAX API loader (jsapi), which works in
all supported browsers and is futureproof.
