Yes, you can add custom XML parsing to the process of reading the KML file. > > feature.attributes.description should do this. > > /quote> > > Is it possible to GML layer be a feature? > > Maybe I wasn’t so precise, so > > For example: > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2";> > <Document> > <name>Highlighted Icon</name> > <description>Description of document</description> > <Placemark> > <name>Roll over this icon</name> > <description>Description of placemar</description> > … > > I would like to read “Description of document”.

The snippet assumes you are using a GML layer with a KML format, because that is what I read between the lines in your question. var documentDescription; var layer = new OpenLayers.Layer.GML("my gml layer", "http://my.url";, { format: OpenLayers.Format.KML, formatOptions: { read: function(data) { OpenLayers.Format.KML.prototype.read.apply(this, arguments); var desc = data.getElementsByTagNameNS(data, "*", "description"); if(desc.length && desc[0].parentNode.nodeName == "Document") { documentDescription = desc[0].firstChild && desc[0].firstChild.nodeValue; } } } }); // after loadend, you can do whatever you want with doucmentDescription The above snippet is untested, but should be enough to give you a sense of what to do.
