[OpenLayers-Users] Re: problems using GPX format

[Georg Kaspar]

further investigations lead to the conclusion that a link tag without
further content or child nodes is causing the problem. For example:

<trk>
    <name>BaumbergeAlpin-97km on GPSies.com</name>
    <link href="http://www.gpsies.com/map.do?fileId=ufgjkujlrxmxgyun" />
    <trkseg>

by removing the link tag or adding some content, the problem could be
solved... anybody who can explain this behaviour?

best regards,
georg
