google.load - and message “google is not defined”

Question
What do I need to include to do a google.load()
statement?
I'm getting the error:
google is not defined
Based on this page, I thought I should add this:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=ABCDEFG">
</script>
But when I did, I got this error:
"window.LoadFirebugConsole" is not a function.
Solution
I had the same problem and solved it like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function LoadGoogle()
{
if(typeof google != 'undefined' && google && google.load)
{
// Now you can use google.load() here...
}
else
{
// Retry later...
setTimeout(LoadGoogle, 30);
}
}
LoadGoogle();
</script>
The idea is to retry until google is defined.
The other solutions didn't help me, probably because this piece of code is loaded via Ajax from another page.
OTHER TIPS
Did you include the google jsapi script before adding the load and callback methods? They should be in seperate script blocks.
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=ABCDE"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load("jquery", "1");
// Define our onLoad callback
function OnLoad(){
alert("Loaded!");
}
google.setOnLoadCallback(OnLoad);
</script>
There are additional examples in the Google's 'AJAX Api's Playground'.
you should include this script -- http://www.google.com/jsapi
I had the problem, but I was using:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" />
It was solved by chanching the line to:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
