Hi there,

I'm not getting a KML or GPX file to download when I use the GPSrecorder HTML interface.
The track list is obtained and I get the buttons to download. When I click on one of the download buttons there is some activity while connecting to the Bangle. But after that no file downloads and there is nothing in my download folder. I can download files ok through the IDE. Also put bangle.com on my whitelist for Ad blocker.

Running on a Chromebook using google Chrome browser. I can see some exceptions when I turn developer tools on. Hopefully that will help. I'm not a web developer so not able to go much further with it.

Thanks - I just tried here (on a Chromebook, just in case) and I seem to be able to do it fine. Is it possible you have popups/downloads blocked somehow?

The log messages I get are identical to yours, so it looks like in your case the file itself is getting downloaded fine - it's just how it is processed and saved in the laptop that is causing issues.

I do get that error message as well. It seems unrelated (caused by apps that don't have a tags field in them) but I'm just pushing a change for that now

Hmm, managed to download both KML and GPX tonight. Must be the Ad blocker which I turned off.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
