This is great, it really helps, thank you. I have got Freemarker working a
treat, but I am having problems with the SLD. I have created a point style
in the SLD for a polygon featureclass (the KML output for a polygon
featureclass contains both points (centroids I assume) and polygons for each
feature). However, the output KML contains two <iconstyle> declarations -
one is the default that Geoserver writes when there is no point SLD, and the
other from my SLD:
<kml>
<Document>
<name>topp:hc1</name>
<Style id="GeoServerStylehc1.1">
<IconStyle>
<scale>0.4</scale>
<Icon>
<href>http://www.peruweb.org:8080/geoserver/icon-poly.png</href>
</Icon>
</IconStyle>
<IconStyle>
<color>ffaaaaaa</color>
<colorMode>normal</colorMode>
<Icon>
<href>http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pal3/icon55.png</href>
</Icon>
</IconStyle>
</Style>
2 iconstyles!
My SLD contains:
<PointSymbolizer>
<Graphic>
<ExternalGraphic>
<OnlineResource xlink:type="simple"
xlink:href="http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pal3/icon55.png"/>
<Format>image/png</Format>
</ExternalGraphic>
</Graphic>
</PointSymbolizer>
Is this a bug, or something I need to override in a setting? It confuses
google maps, which can't seem to decide which iconstyle to use.

Hi Gregor
Symbols are typically controlled through the use of an SLD. You can
style points and polygons are you wish based on the definition in the
SLD.
In regards to the information for each point (i.e. when a use clicks
on a point), you will need to take a look at the tutorial:
http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/Freemarker+templates
You can control many, but not all, aspects of KML output by developing
appropriate Freemarker templates.
Let us know if you need more info.
Best regards,
Jason

How can I control marker symbols and other options in geoserver kml+XML
format (that's kml, not kmz - I am working with a polyline file which I
want
to keep as polylines for a google map overlay). By default the kml seems
to
pick up icon.png from the geoserver directory, but the scaling is funny.
Can
I define custom icons for different layers?
Also, is there any way to control the information associated with each
point. At the moment I get back all the fields in a table.
Regards,
Gregor
