Hi guys,

I'm building a dummy widget for a iGoogle/Netvibes like portal. This is a "Google Maps" widget, as it only renders a map centered on a specific location.

The widget looks good in all browsers but IE8, in which the height I specify to the <div> that contains the map is not taken into account.

Here's the interesting part of the code:

<body onload="initialize()" >

<div id="map_canvas" style="height:400px; width: 100%;"></div>

</body>

I have no control on the portal, so the only thing I can modify is the widget itself. I also tried to set the height for the <body>, but same thing.

Any idea on why it's not working in IE?

Thanks!
