Help convert google maps 2 to 3?

Hi there,

Is there anyone that can convert this working function (for google maps v2) to a v3 version?

var geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
geocoder.getLatLng(this.value, function (point) {
if (point) {
map.setCenter(point, 8, G_PHYSICAL_MAP);
}
});

I have the sollution and here to share it with you all.

var geocoder, map;
 
function codeAddress(address) {
    geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
    geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address + ', the netherlands'}, function(results, status) {
      if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
        map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
      }
    });
  }
