title: Move google map center javascript api
body: <p>In my  project I want to move the center of the map to new coordinates. This is the code I have for the map </p>
  
  <pre><code>function initialize() {
      var mapOptions = {
        center: new google.maps.LatLng(0, 0),
        zoom: 4,
        mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
      };
      var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
          mapOptions);
    }
    function moveToLocation(lat, lng){
       var center = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
       var map = document.getElementById("map_canvas");
       map.panTo(center);
  
    }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The moveToLocation function does get called but the map does not re center. Any idea what I'm missing?</p>
