I took one photo, and added the cdata tag, and changed the   back to   (thats removing the double entities in nbsp if they are swallowed by the blog software)
http://www.nearby.org.uk/google/temp/SanFrancisco2.kml
which displays fine in GMaps.

Hopefully that helps, and should be a nice quick fix.

It looks like you just need to add CDATA tags around your description. I did a quick test and that got the photos working – e.g. http://pamela.fox.googlepages.com/sanfran.kml (just fixed one of the Levi Climbs pics).

Cool stuff. :)

I’ve just spent a very happy hour browsing around many old haunts, marveling at how they’ve changed. Catt++
