[OpenLayers-Users] Problems with Internet Explorer: Digitizing tools, Loading GML/KML files, ...

[Sebastian Paasche]

So just for my understanding: I am not allowed to load vector data files from 
the same directory where my HTML page is placed?

HTML in d:\web\html
Javascript  (incl. openlayers) in d:\web\js
files in d:\web\kml

//load data in Javascript
var kml = new OpenLayers.Layer.GML("KML", "../kml/data.kml", 
               {
                format: OpenLayers.Format.KML, 
                formatOptions: 
                {
                  extractStyles: true, 
                  extractAttributes: true
                } 
               }
    );

URL in IE 7: d:\web\html\myPage.html

So this is not possible, isn't it? But putting everything in a web server 
might solve my problem?

Thanks,
Sebastian
