Google Maps and KMZ files

[BurtleEd]

Does anyone know how to get Coldfusion to display a KMZ layer on a google map? I have a google map that has multiple layers and it works great but we would like the map to display a KMZ file as a layer. The KMZ file is located on the root of the web directory.

!---Start of Map--->
   <script src=http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&key=mykey
            type="text/javascript"></script>
            <script src="http://earthcode.com/downloads/gzoom.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
      <script src="http://gmaps-utility-library.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markermanager/1.1/src/markermanager.js"></scri...>
         <script type="text/javascript">
    function initialize() {
    
   if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
 
  <!---Map 1--->
  var map1 = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas1"));
        map1.setCenter(new GLatLng(31.970804,-86.682129), 4);
  map1.setMapType(G_HYBRID_MAP);
  map1.setUIToDefault();

// Create a base icon for all of our markers that specifies the
        // shadow, icon dimensions, etc.
        var baseIcon = new GIcon(G_DEFAULT_ICON);
        baseIcon.shadow = "http://www.google.com/mapfiles/shadow50.png";
        baseIcon.iconSize = new GSize(20, 34);
        baseIcon.shadowSize = new GSize(37, 34);
        baseIcon.iconAnchor = new GPoint(9, 34);
        baseIcon.infoWindowAnchor = new GPoint(9, 2);

        // Creates a marker whose info window displays the letter corresponding
        // to the given index.
        function createMarker(point, title, contact, icao, iwwc, letter) {
          // Create a lettered icon for this point using our icon class
          var letteredIcon = new GIcon(baseIcon);
          letteredIcon.image = "http://www.google.com/mapfiles/marker"+letter+".png";

          // Set up our GMarkerOptions object
          markerOptions = { icon:letteredIcon, title:title };
          var marker = new GMarker(point, markerOptions);

          GEvent.addListener(marker, "click", function() {
            marker.openInfoWindowHtml("<u><b>" + title + "</b></u><br /><b>Phone:&nbsp</b>" + contact + "<br /><b>ICAO:&nbsp</b>" + icao + "&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp<B>IWWC:&nbsp</b>"+iwwc);
          });
          return marker;
        }
<!---/** OVERLAYS MAP 1**/--->

map1.addOverlay(createMarker(new GLatLng(41.939,-72.688), "Bradley International Airport", "DSN 220-2312", "KBDL", "CT3", "A"));

ColdFusion is going to have nothing to do with KMZ and Google Maps.  Google Maps are a client technology that use JavaScript.  Have your CFML deliver the proper JavaScript that the Google Maps API is expecting inside of some relevant HTML and the browsers that can will display your desired map.

ColdFusion won't even know it has happend, it has moved on to another request.
