Hi.
I want to create my own google map on a website from me.
I get the API Key and use the sample to create the map at my website. It works fine...

Now i want show some points.
I have found here http://earth.google.com/kml/kml_tut.html#placemarks the section View-Based Refresh Queries. I think its nice if you want to use a big database with pionts.

But now my problem. How can i use the kml file at my own google map with the api? If i go to http://maps.google.com/ i can put the path at the search field, but how can i use a link witout the searh field?

<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&amp;v=2&amp;key=XXX&amp;q=http://jensminor.googlepages.com/bahnhof_berlin.kmz"
doesn`t work

Hi Aerics,

Currently, there is no support for hosting a KML file on your own Maps API page.

Sure there is, http://discgolfmaps.googlepages.com/courses.html

It has to be very basic kml though, just placemarks.

Yes, that's true, if you decompose the KML file, you can add it. So far, there's no native support in the API for KML, though.
