Thanks, but I don't really understand your statement. Google Earth can load
huge KML layers, although I think it might be using some kind of scaling.
See...
http://maps.google.co.uk/?ie=UTF8&ll=13.923404,-7.03125&spn=170.980165,360&t=h&z=1&lci=lmc:panoramio,lmc:wikipedia_en
If OL cannot load large KML layers is there anything already in the code I can
use ? Or maybe future development will include a scaling function for large
layers ?
Anyone else have any ideas ?
