Sure. But that code (Mike Williams' code, not really mine), uses attributes of xml objects to set the categories, Style is an element value, so you would need to change the xml parsing to use the value of the Style tag to set the category. There are examples of parsing the element value in both Google Maps API groups (v2 and v3), and that aspect really has nothing to do with the API. > I guess I might have to switch to xml to do that (?) kml is xml. -- Larry > > Thanks for any guidance, > John > > My KMLlayer: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2";> > <Document> > > <Style > id="A"><IconStyle><Icon><scale>1</scale><href>http://myapp.com/a.png</href></Icon></IconStyle></Style> > <Style > id="B"><IconStyle><Icon><scale>1</scale><href>http://myapp.com/b.png</href></Icon></IconStyle></Style> > <Style > id="C"><IconStyle><Icon><scale>1</scale><href>http://myapp.com/c.png</href></Icon></IconStyle></Style> > <Style > id="D"><IconStyle><Icon><scale>1</scale><href>http://myapp.com/d.png</href></Icon></IconStyle></Style> > <Style > id="E"><IconStyle><Icon><scale>1</scale><href>http://myapp.com/e.png</href></Icon></IconStyle></Style> > > etc…. > > <Placemark><name></name><styleUrl>#B</styleUrl><Point><coordinates>-74.43259521961212,40.8943650990247</coordinates></Point></Placemark> > <Placemark><name></name><styleUrl>#C</styleUrl><Point><coordinates>-74.44392487049103,40.88800646036461</coordinates></Point></Placemark> > <Placemark><name></name><styleUrl>#C</styleUrl><Point><coordinates>-74.44632812976837,40.88502158250371</coordinates></Point></Placemark> > etc…. > > </Document></kml> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
