Question

My HTML is as under

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no"/>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
<title>Google Maps JavaScript API v3 Example: Directions Complex</title>


<style>
   html{height:100%;}
   body{height:100%;margin:0px;font-family: Helvetica,Arial;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript"     src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://geoxml3.googlecode.com/svn/branches/polys/geoxml3.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://geoxml3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ProjectedOverlay.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
  jQuery(document).ready(function () {        
  var myOptions = {
    center: new google.maps.LatLng(39.397, -100.644),
    zoom: 4,
    mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
    };
  var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);

  var geoXml = new geoXML3.parser({
    map: map,
    singleInfoWindow: true,
    afterParse: useTheData
     });
     geoXml.parse('google_earth_tutorial_files.kml');
    }
   );

   function useTheData(doc) {
    // Geodata handling goes here, using JSON properties of the doc object
    for (var i = 0; i < doc[0].markers.length; i++) {
        // console.log(doc[0].markers[i].title);
        jQuery('#map_text').append(doc[0].markers[i].title + ', ');
    }
  };
</script>

</head>
<body >
 <form id="form1">

    <div id="map_canvas" style="width:600px;height:500px;"></div>

    <div id="map_text"></div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

But the problem is that on my machine I get an error on developer tools

GET google_earth_tutorial_files.kml  geoxml3.js:1169
geoXML3.fetchXML geoxml3.js:1169
fetchDoc geoxml3.js:160
parse geoxml3.js:155
(anonymous function) testmypage2.html:35
n jquery.min.js:2
o.fireWith jquery.min.js:2
e.extend.ready jquery.min.js:2
c.addEventListener.B

Line 35 in my html is geoXml.parse('google_earth_tutorial_files.kml');

I don't know why this is happening. Please help. I can see the map but no KML layer gets loaded

My KML is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.0">
<Placemark>
   <name>Manfred Mustermann</name>
   <description>Manfred Mustermann</description>
   <Point>
      <coordinates>7.0964850607874,51.781641735074,0</coordinates>
   </Point>
   <address>Musterstr 29 Aachen, 52070 Nordrhein-Westfalen</address>
   <styleUrl>#0</styleUrl>
</Placemark>
</kml>
Was it helpful?

Solution

if you can run a local web server, it doesn't matter to geoxml3 if your application is public, but you need to read the Terms of Service for Google Maps
