Hi Ross Thanks for the tip. I have removed the "www." prefix from the KML URLs array. That may solve your exception. But this does not solve the IE issue.
Regarding FF2 compatibility and graceful handling of the absence of GE plugin, I'll add that to my TO DO list. However, the fact that the GE plugin is not installed should not prevent the parsing of KML and javascript code execution for the geographic calculations... Conclusion: I'm still stuck, and would love to get further help Cheers Guilhem If you have On Mar 31, 10:42 pm, Rossko <[email protected]> wrote: > > The source for the Javascript is found > > at:http://hobieracingschool.fr/joomla/francesco/francesco_transat_map.html > > and it uses two JS libraries in the same folder: spotkmlparser.js and > > geocalc.js > > I don't get a map in FF2, maybe because I don't have the GE plugin. > Perhaps your webpage could handle that gracefully? > > I get a javascript error - > uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method > XMLHttpRequest.open > originating in this line > GDownloadUrl(KML[0], spotkmlparse); > where KML[0] is > http://www.hobieracingschool.fr/joomla/francesco/spot_messages.kml > > Is that a cross-domain error because the calling page > ishttp://hobieracingschool.... > nothttp://www.hobieracingschool.... > > cheers, Ross K > Line 0 > > > > > My page/application works great in Firefox 3.0.8 on WinXP, but on IE 7 > > I get the following error: > > > "Line: 137 > > Char: 5 > > Error: Object doesn't support this property or method > > Code: 0 > > URL:http://hobieracingschool.fr/joomla/francesco/francesco_transat_map.html"; > > > The GE plugin then displays OK but normally some stats are displayed > > at the bottom of the Google Earth view, and they don't on IE... > > > Also if you try the second "Zoom" radio button (labelled "Derniere > > Position" - sorry the UI is in french), then the GE plugin takes me to > > the Lng=0,Lat=0; whereas it is supposed to create a LookAt at the last > > point in the global points array created by parsing the KML file. > > > This makes me think that something is wrong in my KML parsing and > > inner HTML creation code, but I don't figure it out ... but it might > > as well be some other IE oddity that I don't know about > > > Does someone have any clue ?
