KML Layer Sample Code not working

VishnuSudheendran — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 20:27:24 GMT

KML Sample provided on http://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jssamples/layers_kml.html is not working on my machine. While viewing online I can see Wyoming state highlighted. But when I run the same code on my machine it's not highlighting Wyoming state. Do I have to make some other configurations to make it work? I am new to KML. Can anybody help me on it?

Are you running the sample code from your file system or from a web server? In other words, when you try to run the sample on your machine, does the URL start with file:// or http://? It needs to be the latter.

Earlier I was running locally from an html file on my system. That was the problem. Now I am running it on ASP.NET Development Server, therefore it works now. Thanks a lot for your help.
