I wouldn't think so. Have you checked your files against those limits? Since the firestation file is bigger than the golf file, I would expect it to run into those limits first, but I didn't count the "number of total document-wide features" We don't have much insight into the GGeoXml server side processing and when it changes. It seems to affect Google Maps, GGeoXml (v2) and KmlLayer (v3). I would think that if the exact same files all worked 2 months ago (and a month ago), then a change to the server side processing must have affected the files differently. Hard to say what the issue is though. -- Larry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
