Problem implementing mapTypeIds

[dondmcg]

I have read throughout the documentation and searched these forums. I
found several posts pertaining to this but when I follow the
instructions I do not get the solution. I am trying to simply add
TERRAIN to the controls of my map
http://staging.nybg.org/science/geographic-area-programs.php

But no matter what I try I still only get the default roadmap and
satellite. Below is my code any ideas?
P.S. I know that you have altered the documentation already regarding
this implementation as there was a typo but I suggest an example would
be clearer. Just my 2 sense.

<code>
var mapmulti = new
google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('mapmulti'), {
zoom: 2,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(40.847265, -73.893876),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,
//mapTypeControl: true,
mapTypeControlOptions: {
mapTypeIds: [google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE, google.maps.MapTypeId.TERRAIN],
style: google.maps.MapTypeControlStyle.HORIZONTAL_BAR,
position: google.maps.ControlPosition.TOP_CENTER
}
});
</code>

on your map, when you select the roadmap maptype, then "Terrain" is
available as a tickbox under the "Map".

I think V3.3 is the only current version which still shows Terrain as
separate button.

But I'd expect V3.3 to be retired soon, with the schedule for the next
release due early in August?

i never liked this behavior, best is you do a custom map type
control... there should be a lot of easy to understand tutorials =)
