Using google maps API, how can we set the current location as the default set location using map.setCenter function?

Question

I am writing JavaScript code using Google Maps API.

map = new google.maps.Map2(document.getElementById(\"map_canvas\"));
map.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng

that already exists in the google api:

if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) 
{   
    var map = new google.maps.Map2(document.getElementById("mapdiv"));

    if (google.loader.ClientLocation) 
    {        
        var center = new google.maps.LatLng(
            google.loader.ClientLocation.latitude,
            google.loader.ClientLocation.longitude
        );
        var zoom = 8;

        map.setCenter(center, zoom);
    }
}
