First off, my apologies if I'm getting the terminologies wrong.
We're trying to import Atom based GeoRSS feeds. The feeds we are
getting have the georss namespace declared as an attribute to an
element (did I get those terms right?) like so:
<georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss";>45.256
-71.92</georss:point>
Sample file:
http://public.blu.livefilestore.com/y1pwt-hNgJefmFEUZKN6MeOk0uYnP31iwOWwHYEvAHVT5XVG9RJS_SIUrIwC5V5C5qa29CJhrWWToy306C-WFub8A/reference2.xml
>From what we understand, this is a valid way to declare the
namespace. However, we can't seem to get it to work in Google maps.
If we removed all these inline 'declares' and put one in the root
<feed> element, it works fine:
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";
xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss";>
Sample file:
http://public.blu.livefilestore.com/y1pDnQugSq3uAzeh9zmWxHUEICxfSDqey3tzXAa55tlQMBUACl23waREsK6Tw43gyVaDqp6PM1_S2XfcB7tLnwHLw/reference.xml
I have provided sample files for inline and root namespace declars
above. Give it a try via the copy / paste file URLs into
maps.google.com.
Question:
- Are we doing something wrong?
- If both of these files are valid GeoRSS documents, could there be
something wrong with the Google Maps GeoRSS parser?
- Any work arounds? We are unable to change the feeds we are getting.
Rock on!
