    You have wrong formatting and possibly bad parameters:

    <script>src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=MY_API_KEY=TRUE"></script>

    should be something like:

    <script src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=MY_API_KEY&sensor=TRUE"></script>

    making sure the MY_API_KEY is replaced by your Google Map API key, or simply ignore this parameter if you don’t need it.
    Not sure you want the sensor to TRUE, I just guessed since you had an orphan =TRUE parameter
