Using XML file in Java script to create Google Map

Hello,
I work for a non-profit in San Diego as a GIS Specialist. I have had to teach myself about some scripting to create some dynamic maps, but I am still very limited in my skills, so I have had to explore the internet in order to discover various tutorials and examples that have led me on a positive path.
Right now I am working on a Google Mash-Up that will incorporate over 14,000 records, which will appear as separate markers that will have pop-up info bubbles with additional info inside (using html), once the marker is clicked.
Here is the XML script example that is used in the tutorial I am following:
<markers>
<marker lat="43.65654" lng="-79.90138" html="Some stuff to display in the<br>First Info Window"
label="Marker One" />
<marker lat="43.91892" lng="-78.89231" html="Some stuff to display in the<br>Second Info Window"
label="Marker Two" />
<marker lat="43.82589" lng="-79.10040" html="Some stuff to display in the<br>Third Info Window"
label="Marker Three" />
</markers>
...and this is how it looks when the file is retrieved by the java script and mapped: http://econym.googlepages.com/example_map3.htm
This is the java script that creates the Google Map. I have emboldened the section of the script that retrieves the data and parses it to create the markers:

Here is my delima--
This is the xml format that I need to use because it can accept the rest of my excel file and loop it through the 14,000+ records to create a functioning xml file. This is just a sample (2 records) of the larger file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<ConnectoryAug2008>
<ConnectoryRecord>
     <lng>-117.03683</lng>
     <lat>32.944505</lat>
     <ConnectoryID>1</ConnectoryID>
     <Name>$2.95 Guys</Name>
     <StreetAddress>13750 Stowe Drive</StreetAddress>
     <City>Poway</City>
     <State>CA</State>

     <IndustryGroup>Technical Services</IndustryGroup>
     <ConnectoryProfileLink>http://connectory.com/search/profile_view.aspx?connectoryId=1</ConnectoryProfileLink>

<ConnectoryRecord>
     <lng>-117.272843</lng>
     <lat>33.13337</lat>

     <ConnectoryProfileLink>http://connectory.com/search/profile_view.aspx?connectoryId=2</ConnectoryProfileLink>
</ConnectoryRecord>
</ConnectoryAug2008>
This is the tutorial where I found the formatting techniques to successfully create the large xml file that will format/convert my excel file properly: http://www.mrexcel.com/tip064.shtml
These variables should appear as html in the info bubble:
<ConnectoryID>2</ConnectoryID>
     <Name>(GLDS) Great Lakes Data Systems</Name>
     <StreetAddress>5954 Priestly Drive</StreetAddress>
     <City>Carlsbad</City>

The "Marker" variable instructs Google Maps to label the marker with a particular color. I will be so grateful to the person(s) that helps me get through this wall that I have been hitting for a long time. It's very difficult without having the luxury of peers who know about these types of issues.
Thank you!!

Here is the relationship: They both contain geographic coordinates that produce a point on a map. I will use the rest of the information in the second xml file (company name, address, link, etc.) to produce the information for the bubble that will pop up once the marker is clicked.
My problem is that I need to try to keep the second xml file in a relatively similar format, so the rest of my records will still be accepted. If I had a smaller amount of records I could place them directly into the javascript, but because there are so many records, I need to use an xml file that can be retrieved by the java script. I chose to use the second type of xml file because I can easily copy and past the 14,000+ records that are now in excel document.
After the xml issue is corrected I need to rework the javascript that is now emboldened so that it will read the new xml file correctly. I included the first xml file so that the readers will understand what type of xml format is currently being used to produce the markers in the tutorial map.

What the best way to create XML files from JAVA application?

Hi to all,
I need to edit and to create new filex in format of xml. I know to parse, but what would be the best way to do:
1. - Create new file, create like simle text file, or there is some clases that know to do it in more simple way
2.a - Edit XML file, to take some data and add it to the XML in the place I want to.
2.b - Also Edit, but not to add fields, just update some of them.
Code examples or links to samples woul be welcomed.
Best regards, Nick.

I have tried working with XML directly using the Java classes but this was a pain. I then looked at DOM4J and JDOM and found JDOM easier to use.

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

Creation of xml file in r3 application server (AL11)

Hi All
I need to create xml file in r3 application server (AL11) using PI.Can we achieve this using file adapter or we need to proceed with proxy. As I tried with file adapter with FTP transport protocol. Its giving the error as "Unable to create new pooled resource:FTPEx:Login incorrect".
Thanks in advance

Kartikeya

Hi

To generate file at AL11 file directory use File adapter. Proxy is not required for this
Its giving the error as "Unable to create new pooled resource:FTPEx:Login incorrect".
1. Check with the Login credentials for the FTP service.
2. FTP User you use in communication channel must have 777 access to FTP location.

Error while extracting XML file from the application server

Hi ,
I am writing a XML file into the application server, after which when i try to extract the file to the local server using the report - RFASLDPC ,
the file is extracted, but with a '#' symbol at the first position.
Because of which the XML File does not open. But after i open the file in notepad and manually delete the '#' symbol and then reopen the file, it works fine.
Is there any way to remove the '#' symbol while extracting itself ??
Thanks in advance,
Vikas.

Select the option "No Character Set Conversion" in stead of Code page 1100.
However, I still have troubles -> the downloaded xml file misses a space on several places. This causes errors too.

Issue: XML File Downloading to Application Server

Hi All,
I am experiencing an issue downloading an XML File to the Application Server.
I'm using FM SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT to convert SAP data to XML Format.
After getting the XML data into XMLTAB, I'm using:
OPEN DATASET pfile_fs FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE .
     LOOP AT xmltab INTO xmltab_w.
     TRANSFER xmltab_w TO pfile_fs.
      CLEAR xmltab_w.
     ENDLOOP.
   CLOSE DATASET pfile_fs.
The xml file is downloaded show an Error in 'XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
Invalid at the top level of the document. Error processing resource 'file:/shared/TEST/2009'
But when i download xml file using the FM WS_Download , the XML page has no errors .
I am unable to figure out what could be the issue, If this issue is due to some characters like Chinese or Japanese then .. is there any solution for this .
Please, give me your valuable suggestions.
Thank you,

Loading an XML File in an Application!

Hy Guys!
I'm quite new on Java, so I'm missing some important knowledge, for example: how to load an XML file in an Application downloaded by Java WebStart:
In Details:
I'm downloading an Application which needs an XML File for setting up an Legend. As far as I know, the XMLParser needs a File as argument to parse. By Java WebStart/jnlp, I can't download the XML-File to the local machine, and trying to create an instance by the url (as String), doesn't work. So now I'm missing some information, and I hope you can help me:
Is there a possiblility to download the XML file via the application explicitly,
or is there a possibility to "convert" the ResourceInputStream into a "parseable" class?
I'm happy for every suggestion ..
some code:
public class EvalXML extends org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler {
/** Creates a new instance of EvalXML */
public EvalXML() {
* @param args the command line arguments
public static int main(String[] args) {
DefaultHandler handler = new EvalXML();
SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
String url = new String();
//String url = EvalXML.class.getClassLoader().getResource("com/msgis/res/Lcc_Test_XML_Addressen.xml").getPath();
//String url= "msgis.jar!/com/msgis/res/Lcc_Test_XML_Addressen.xml";
if (args[0] + "empty" != "empty") url = args[0];
else{
System.out.println("no argument");
return 0;
System.out.println("PATH: \n" + url + "\n");
try{
SAXParser saxParser = factory.newSAXParser();
//saxParser.parse(new File(EvalXML.class.getClassLoader().getResource("com/msgis/res/Lcc_Test_XML_Addressen.xml").getPath()), handler);
saxParser.parse(new File(url), handler);
System.out.println("pascht");
catch(Throwable t){
System.out.println(t.getMessage());
return 1;
regards dominik

Although nobody wrote back, it is the quality of a forum depends on soluted problems so:
the following function loads the file from the server to the box:
public boolean loadResource(String pURL){
DownloadService ds;
URL lURL;
boolean lLoaded = true;
try{
lURL = new URL(pURL);
try {
ds = (DownloadService)ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.DownloadService");
} catch (UnavailableServiceException e) {
ds = null;
lLoaded = false;
if (ds != null) {
try {
// determine if a particular resource is cached
//URL url = new URL("http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/lib/draw.jar");
boolean cached = ds.isResourceCached(lURL, "1.0");
// remove the resource from the cache
if (cached) {
ds.removeResource(lURL, "1.0");
// reload the resource into the cache
DownloadServiceListener dsl = ds.getDefaultProgressWindow();
ds.loadResource(lURL, "1.0", dsl);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
lLoaded = false;
catch(MalformedURLException mue)
System.out.println(mue.getMessage());
lLoaded =false;
return lLoaded;

How I can create a XML file from java Aplication

How I can create a XML file from java Aplication
whith have a the following structure
<users>
<user>
<login>anyName</login>
<password>xxxx</password>
</user>
</users>
the password label must be encripted
accept any suggestion

Let us assume you have all the data from the jsp form in an java bean object..
Now you want a xml file. This can be acheived in 2 ways
1. Write it into a file using java.io classes. Say you have a class with name
write("<name>"+obj.getName+</name>);
bingo you have a flat file with the xml
2. Use data binding to do the trick
will recommend JiBx and Castor for the 2nd option
