I've used eZ publish to generate KML files for Google Earth. To achive this I've made a new pagelayout (kml_pagelayout.kml) and some template overrides (kml_view.country.tpl etc).
You'll find an example on:http://www.globalis.no/land/afghanistan
Click on the link "Vis land på Google Earth"
This is working with Firefox but Internet Explorer gives an error:"Could not open file..."
This is a known error and is not directly connected to eZ publish:http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=665657&page=2&fpart=all&vc=1
I've tried different solutions but it's still not working.
Does anyone have a solution???

Hi Bjørn
This has probably something to do with cache control.
I've encountered the problem before with other types of files and I used the following HTTP headers to solve it:
Expires: 0 Cache-Control: private Content-type: application/x-Research-Info-SystemsContent-Disposition: attachment; filename="export.ris"

Thanks for your reply.
Is it possible to set these HTTP headers without changing the kernel files of eZ publish?

Yes, you can: http://ezpedia.org/wiki/en/ez/headers

SOLVED!
I had to add these lines to site.ini.append.php:
[HTTPHeaderSettings] CustomHeader=enabled HeaderList[]=Cache-Control Cache-Control[]Cache-Control[/layout/set/kml]=private
It is now working in both Internet Explorer and Firefox
Thanks for your help.
