A few thoughts, I did not go through the entire KML file. Your icon http://www.laudontech.com/surrey/000000.png is not really an icon rather a composite image of icons. I am pretty sure that is why the kml parser is failing to display it and substitute with the default Google icon. Also, for the placemarks with the name NULL, you are trying to display the icons with a styleUrl element, but you do not have styles defined for it. Despite what it says here http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/kmlelementsinmaps.html styleUrl is supported as long as you do not use it with StyleMap to try to produce the roll over effect seen in Google Earth, but as I said before you have no Styles defined for it.
Am I missing something? The reference page for kml can be found here http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/kmlreference.html The kml elemenrs supported in Google Maps can be found here http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/kmlelementsinmaps.html Finally, I am not sure from your post if this refers to the display of the kml file in a Google Map using the Maps API. If it does not, you should probably post better in the KML Developer Support group http://groups.google.com/group/kml-support?hl=en or the Maps Help group http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/maps?hl=en On Jan 20, 11:46 am, MapsRus <[email protected]> wrote: > I have a KML file located here: > > http://www.laudontech.com/surrey/doc2.kml > > When I try and render it in Google Maps, my custom icons do not > render: > > http://www.laudontech.com/surrey/000000.png > > Even though this icon path is in the KML file. > > Any ideas? > > QF --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
