Comments:
KML Tutorial documentation states that the KML should be able to link to &
refresh any file, regardless of whether it's local or remote . . .
Relevant Application(s):
GE 4.3 on Windows XP SP2
Steps to Reproduce:
Continuously updating image sources (akin to webcam output, with *.jpg or any
other stationary image extension) referenced by local absolute pathname, by
http://localhost/*.jpg, by file://.../*.jpg, or via local intranet (such as on
a localhost Apache server on another local computer -
http://192.168.0.1**:8080/*.jpg), will not automatically refresh in placemarker
description tags but appear to only refresh in image overlays. Remote web
server image sources of same image type, however, refresh just fine within the
exact same KML coding . . .
Workarounds:
Create an Apache web server service on a local computer with same image source
output and view the image source as if from a remote web server (exit &
re-enter local firewall).
