Google Map not shown

I write a web page, and inserted Google Map into it. But the map always not shown. I tried to use Firebug to see what happened, and found there are no errors.

The div of map-canvas has been correctly replaced by Google Map API but that div not shown... I debugged this for several days, still no solution.

    <html><head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <meta content="IE=Edge" http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible">

        <meta content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" name="viewport">
        <meta charset="utf-8">

        <title>TaskPaneApp1</title>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.8.2.min.js" style=""></script>
        <script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp&sensor=false"></script>
    </head>

    <body>
        <!-- Page content -->
        <div id="content-header">
            <div class="padding">
                <h1>Welcome</h1>
            </div>
        </div>
        <div id="content-main">
            <div class="padding">
                <p><strong>Add home screen content here.</strong></p>
                <p>For example:</p>
                <button id="get-data-from-selection">Get data from selection</button>

                <p style="margin-top: 50px;">
                    <a href="http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=276812" target="_blank">
                        Find more samples online...
                    </a>
                </p>
                <div style="position: relative">
                    <p>Hey there!</p>
                    <div style="position: relative; width: 100%; height: 500px">
                        <div id="map-canvas">
                            Loading...
                        </div>
                    </div>  
                    <p>This is the end of the map</p>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        var map;
            function initialize() {
              var mapOptions = {
                zoom: 8,
                center: new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644),
                mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
              };
              map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'),
                  mapOptions);
            }

            google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
    </script>
    </body></html>

Your map div doesn't have a size. This: 

<div id="map-canvas" style="height:300px; width:300px;">

makes it display for me.

You didn't set the dimensions of the map div, but of the div that the map is nested in. Add height and width properties to div id 'map-canvas' and the map should appear.

    <div id="map-canvas" style="width: 400px; height: 400px;">Loading...</div>
