Look at the documentation and examples for KmlLayer:

Please help me a little bit

My javascript code is this

(function() {
window.onload = function() {

// Creating an object literal containing the properties
//you want to pass to the map

var options = {
zoom: 10,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(27.98002,     86.92154),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,

//Scale bar

scaleControl: true,


// Now we will play with the maptype terrain menu !!!

mapTypeControl: true,
mapTypeControlOptions: {
  style: google.maps.MapTypeControlStyle.DROPDOWN_MENU,
  position: google.maps.ControlPosition.TOP_RIGHT

//Types of maps available to the user

/* mapTypeIds: [
google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE
]  */



  }


//Navigation toolbar (zoom)

// DEN LEITOURGEI !!!

/* disableDefaultUI: true,
navigationControl: true,
navigationControlOptions: {
  position: google.maps.ControlPosition.TOP_RIGHT,
} */




};

//Creating the map

var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), options);


//Street view enable

var options = {
zoom: 3,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(27.98002,     86.92154),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,
streetViewControl: true
};

//BackGround Color

//Den leitourgei

var options = {
zoom: 3,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(27.98002,     86.92154),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,
backgroundColor: '#000000'
};

// Adding a marker on the Summit Everest

var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(27.98002,     86.92154),
map: map,
// ADDING a title to the Marker
title: ' Summit Everest',
icon: 'http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markers/blue/blank.png'

});

// Create Infowindow on the Marker Everest

var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content:'The Highest Summit on Earth'
});

// Create 'LISTENER' so the Marker can saw info

google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click' , function() {

// call the open method od the InfoWindow
                infowindow.open(map, marker);                                                         
           });

 

var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), myOptions);
   
var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer('http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=981817&filename=Mount-Everest-tour.kmz');
ctaLayer.setMap(map);

Don't know. My browser could perhaps help me to find it if you were
to post a link.

Hello

I don't know if this will help but here you can see the map (at least I can see it from my computer)

file:///C:/Master_Geomatics/Semester_2/Map%20Cpt%202%20---Everest/Index.html


Thanks

That is on your local computer. How do you think I can access your
hard drive?

You might revise your code, so that it only creates the map once.

Ok I am sorry but I have not got any server to upload my map !!!

I made some small change to my Javascript code so i only create the map ones but still can not integrate my KMZ file within.

Any suggestions ???

-------  CODE -------

var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer('http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=981817&filename=Mount-Everest-tour.kmz');
ctaLayer.setMap(map); 

//TELOS TELOUS

};
})();

It works on Google Maps:
http://maps.google.com/maps?client=gmail&q=http:%2F%2Fbbs.keyhole.com%2Fubb%2Fubbthreads.php%3Fubb%3Ddownload%26Number%3D981817%26filename%3DMount-Everest-tour.kmz&ie=UTF8&hl=en&z=6

Means it should work on your map.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by that.

If you want to add markers, polylines and ground overlays with the API/
javascript, you can do that.

The documentation has examples of each.

I believe you can just open the KML file and determine what kind of
objects/classes are in use for example Polygon. Then create it using
the JavaScript API.

[Iratus]

 So can i just copy and paste some of the code that are within the KML file into my code ??? I mean it will work ???

Thank you

No.
KML is just one kind of XML, it is not code.
You will need a tool called a parser to read the KML.
Search for GeoXml3 for an example.
