Wikitude

Not a valid KML file message

Hi,

Newbie here. I looked for another post similar to this, but could not find one. I'm creating my first World and am using TextWrangler  since I'm on a Mac. I save my file for  Unicode (UTF-8).  I checked my code against the documentation provided by Wikitude and everything seems OK. The only think is that I did not include <wikitude:targets> . Must these be a part of the file? 

If someone could check my code, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

Maryanne

HI Maryanne!

The <wikitude:targets> section is optional.

Actually, the issue is located in the fifth Placemark described in your ARML file: you can notice that the tag <name> is not properly close with </name> . In other words, it has been missed the '/' character.

Thanks for your interest in Wikitude!

Simone

Thank you, Simone.  Do you know if there is a validator tool for ARML code similar to what the W3C has set up for HTML at http://validator.w3.org/

You're welcome Maryanne. 

Unfortunately, it is not available (yet) a tool for ARML code validation. Nevertheless there are some community contributions regarding ARML, such as PHP libraries ( here ), etc.

BR,

Simone
