Yup (well reading more closely, not quite the same problem)... It is a problem with the server configuration, I would have to configure it to serve kml files, rather than re-configuring the host, I use .xml files (rename the .kml to .xml). You might try it to see if it works for you, but... the symptoms are different. I can't access my files directly. So it seems to be a different problem. -- Larry > > 1.
