Google Map in Black and White

[phpnewbie08]

I used the below script for google API map on my page. I want to make it black and white. Can I please get some help on making that?

thanks.

function load() {
var locMap = {center: new google.maps.LatLng(45.544167, -122.524607), zoom: 14,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP, streetViewControl: false,	 
mapTypeControl: false};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), locMap);
marker = new google.maps.Marker
({position: new google.maps.LatLng(45.544167, -122.524607), map: map});}

you can use CSS to turn an element black and white, look into "svg filters css3".

you should probably look at the API's built in map styling methods before building your own:
https://developers.google.com/maps/d...script/styling

it appears they even have a wizard that will do it for you:
