[Google Maps API v2] Re: Example doesn't work locally - generating a kml layer at runtime

Hi Larry,

thank you for your answer and sorry for asking on the wrong place.
Actually, that's exactly my qestion. So in order to make this example
work I'd have to create a kml file first and save it to
http://kiechle.e8u.de/linkedService/markers.kml? What's the meaning of
parsing this json object then?

And that's exactly what I need to avoid. I'll be working "in the
cloud" (on google app engine) later, so I cannot generate a static url
to a kml file since my whole application is spread over the web. Hence
I'm searching for a possibility to generate a map with many markers
out of a json object or a string (containing the kml information).

Best wishes

Felix Kiechle
