How to create S-Control in Salesforce ?

To demonstrate this, lets consider an example of Google Map.
Lets create a S-Control for the Google Map.
Now let’s first create a new S-Control:
  1. Click on “Setup” which is located on the top right corner of the force.com page.
  2. Expand “Develop” item and click on “S-Controls”
  3. Hit “New Custom S-Control”
  4. Provide a Label “Google Map” and a description is you wished to
  5. The Type should be HTML since we want to create a HTML, Google API mash up
  6. Now it is time to enter the code for the S-Control
