I am trying to load an FME Workspace that generates KML into Bing. I used to be able to do it, but now every time I try, I get the error, "Unable to load source file." Strangely enough, when I put the URL into a browser, I get a KML returned. But, when I try the same exact URL in javascript for Bing maps integration, I get the "Unable to load source file" error each time.
3) I have tried running the web page on IIS directly (port 80) instead of using the WebMatrix IIS express (which uses port 7313) to host the pages; still get same error.
4) I have tried granting full permissions to the fmeguest and fmeuser roles, still get the same error.
Know that:
- The computer I am running IIS on is on the same corporate intranet domain as the server that is hosting FME Server.

It is a firewall issue. I opened some ports up but the issue is our FME server is not facing the internet, so Bing and Google cannot see it.
What I need to do is download the KML to the web server, which does face the Internet, and then serve the KML to Bing / Google / etc from there instead of trying to take it straight from FME server.
Looking at jQuery for examples of file download now...

Then click on "Stream KML to Bing Maps" that is what I am trying to do, except replaced the fmeserver.com URL with a URL that is inside my corporate domain where our FME Server is hosted.
