If the user has Google Earth installed, it is associated with files of type
.kml and .kmz so will open automatically if you are providing them a link to
a mapagent URL that is generating Google Earth content.  You can also append
USERNAME and PASSWORD parameter to any mapgent request.  See the full
example below.

http://mapguide.spatialgis.com/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?OPERATION=GET
MAPKML&VERSION=1.0.0&FORMAT=KML&DPI=96&MAPDEFINITION=Library%3A%2F%2FSamples
%2FSheboygan%2FMaps%2FSheboygan.MapDefinition&USERNAME=Anonymous&PASSWORD=

Hi JasonBirch,

Thankyou for your replay, But when user will click on link then MapAgent
should be not display and automatically redirect to Google earth, This is my
client requirement. So if you have any example or source code in PHP then
please send me, and  give me detail information about how to send full
session with user ID and Password, That redirect to directly Maps on Google
earth. I am waiting your replay........................................

Thanking you
