Adding KML problem

[J.M.]

Hello,

 

I have added a google maps api to a blog site, and works fine.  But now I would like to add a KML file (from a public server) and it doesn't work. Any ideas to fix the code in blue?

 

 

function initialize() { 
    var mapOptions = { 
      zoom: <?php get_option_tree('zoom', '', true); ?>, 
      mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.<?php get_option_tree('map_type', '', true); ?>, 
      center: stockholm 
    }; 
 
    map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), 
            mapOptions);  

    var kml = new GGeoXml("http://www.mydomain.com/name.kml");
    map.addOverlay(kml)
  }

That file doesn't exist.

If you are using the v3 API, GGeoXml doesn't exist either (which
should be obvious from the javascript errors). Try using the v3
equivalent (KmlLayer).

Also a v2 method, are you using v3 of the Google Maps Javascript API?
Or v2, if so that has a separate group:
