Thanks, Bruce for the responses. i respond to your answer:
1.- If i put a doctype, the google maps doesn't show properly.... only a thin image.... 2.- I can solve the point 1.... 3.- .... 4.- It's normal... it's a route that start and ends at the same point.... 5.- Yes, and sometimes the route can have more than 3000 points... are stored from GPS devices.... EGeoXml is the fastest way to do.... and i don't know anyway to do an optimization.... i can't erase points.... 6.- You referer to the last script? I can't! It must be executed when at the end of the page... But the question is.... why sometimes the execution is good and another times no? What a "unknown error" ever in the same place?
