I'm sure there must be. Going back to your original post - "At any rate, What I notice is about 45% of the time I get an error: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! and then the xml doc cannot load the external entity. " I think that's telling you that PHP has terminated the request, for whatever reason. Maybe it timed out. You need PHP diagnostics to find out what's happening. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
