Question

I have a javascript function which should filter a specific row from a shape file that is already uploaded in fusion tables using shpescape.com.I have used layer.setquery() method with filtering condition.But this query shows entire data from my table rather than filtering only the rows i have mentiooned in the query.since, I am new to google map.please suggest me the code for doing this.

var layer = new google.maps.FusionTablesLayer(2053430,{query:'select  boundary from 2053430 where layer=BOU'});

  layer.setMap(map);

The Google Map API Reference describes how to do this correctly:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/layers.html#FusionTablesQueries

var layer = new google.maps.FusionTablesLayer(
    {query: {
     select:  'boundary',
     from: 2053430,
     where: "layer='BOU'"
          }
    });
