Google maps in hidden div

Question

I have a page with two tabs. The first tab has photos and the second a google map. The problem is that the google map is not completely drawing because it is in a hidden div

Answer 1

I've seen this before you need to resize the map:

google.maps.event.trigger(map, 'resize');
map.setZoom( map.getZoom() );

This is for V3:
