How are you doing that?
If I paste the KML url into a browser
http://www.jmwebspace.webege.com/databasepolygon.kml
and view the source I too see
   {\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 Courier
New;}}
{\*\generator Msftedit 5.41.21.2510;}\viewkind4\uc1\pard
\sa200\sl276\slmult1\lang1033\f0\fs22
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\par
and so on.

Have you tried the maps.google.com test yet?  Just paste your KML URL
into the search bar, to see the error message
"http://www.jmwebspace.webeg... could not be displayed because it is
not a valid KML or KMZ file."
It's extremely simplistic but more informative than the silent failure
of kmlLayer.

I think those extraneous characters are the problem, come from your
editor somehow.  I think you may be saving as RTF regardless of the
file extension.   Maybe save as ascii in a simple text file and then
change the name?

Can't say "why polylines work" since we can't see your KML for that.
