KML layers not showing on IE8

[Matt]

Hi,

I'm using the KML plugin to load some pre-existing KML files which contain placemarks (markers). It works fine in all browsers IE8 (or IE9 in compatibility mode), which is unfortunately a browser I have to make sure is supported.

I don't know if it is an issue to do with the KML plugin, or whether it is a more general problem with displaying FeatureGroup layers, which I believe the KML plugin make use of. Are the any known issues with this in IE8? I've tried debugging the javascript and it seems that the code to display the layers is being executed without errors, but no markers appear on the map. Could it be a CSS issue even?

The page is here: http://www.uea.ac.uk/~mvu12pdu/campusmap/ie/

The toggle buttons are the ones that load the KML files. If you zoom in to the map, the icons that appear are layers created without KML files and just have markers added to them manually.

Any advice appreciated.

Matt,

 

I'm also having problems with IE and KML files - works perfectly in Firefox but not in IE 9 or 10.

 

It looks like you got it working in your scenario but I can't work out from your link the reason - can you enlighten me?

 

Many thanks
