Spaces in KMZ file path prevent images in KMZ files from loading #351

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
KMZ files that reference images used in balloons are unable to load those 
images if the kmz file is saved in a location where a space is in the file path

Example: 
the kmz file will load fine, and images appear in balloons if saved as:
C:\myDocs\myDownloads\someFile.kmz

the balloons will fail to load the images if the path is:
C:\myDocs\my Downloads\someFile.kmz
or
C:\my Docs\myDownloads\someFile.kmz
or
C:\myDocs\myDownloads\some File.kmz

I'm using win7 64 bit, 

"About Google Earth" I am showing: 5.2.1.1329 (beta)

This is a major issue considering any windows users downloading kmz files to 
"my Documents" or "My Downloads" will break the kmz files
