The KML file should be local to the server you are running the code on, and should be a web-accessible path as well.

When I use my code (see my first post) I see a new window with this data:

Line: 486
Char: 109
Error: Permission denied
Code: 0
URL: http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/it_ALL/mapfiles/184a/maps2.api/main.js

I use API v2 and IE7/8 (Windows XP/Vista) with the same error.

Besides I think I have found a bug on line 210 of CSGeoXML, I have replace this line “CsGeoXml.prototype.createPolygon = function() {” with this “CsGeoXml.prototype.createPolygon = function(data) {“.

Can you help me with my “Permission denied” error?

Which version of the maps API are you using? It is possible that the newer versions of the API do not provide the GOverlay function.

Sorry, I should have included that before. I’ve been using Google chrome and Firefox with firebug. I believe it is trying to compile the csgeoxml.js file and it throws some sort of an error on that line(79). The console doesn’t say what the error is, it just points at the line.

I’m running a rails application running on localhost. My code is included below.
var options = {noshadow: true}; //many options available
var csGeoXml = new CsGeoXml(‘csGeoXml’, map, ‘http://localhost:3000/flights.kml’, options);
var handle = GEvent.addListener(csGeoXml, ‘parsed’, function () {
GEvent.removeListener(handle);
map.addOverlay(csGeoXml);
});

What is the error?
What browser?
Do you have a link?

I have not seen this error before. How does IE deliver this message to you? Is it a pop up or in he error console? Also, what version of IE are you using?

I’m trying to use your example above to plot a kml and an error occurs on:

line 79: CsGeoXml.prototype = new GOverlay();

am i doing something wrong?

When I try to load local KML with Internet Explorer I received a “Permission Denied”.
This is my code:

var options = {noshadow: true};
var pippo = new CsGeoXml(‘csGeoXml’, map, ‘file:///c:/abc.kml’, options);
var handle = GEvent.addListener(pippo, ‘parsed’, function () {GEvent.removeListener(handle); map.addOverlay(pippo);});

Can you help me? Thanks
