Took me a long long time to work out why the .kml file I created in django would parse as valid in Feedburner but googlemaps said it was an invalid kml file. Need to be sending as correct content-type of course.
In case anyone else is stuck, here is how I did it: template ----------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.1";> <Document> <name>Seed Trial Locations</name> <description>Where we are</description> {% for location in locations %} <Placemark> <name>{% if location.name %}{{ location.name }}{% else %} {{ location }}{% endif %}</name> <description>{% if location.description %} {{ location.description }}{% else %}{{ location.name }}{% endif %}</ description> <Point> <coordinates>{{location.longt}},{{location.lat}}</coordinates> </Point> </Placemark> {% endfor %} </Document> </kml> view ==== def generateKml(request): locations = Location.objects.all().values('name','lat','longt') result= render_to_response('locations.kml',{ 'locations': locations }) return HttpResponse(result,mimetype='Content-Type:application/ vnd.google-earth.kml+xml') --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
