I have downloaded a set of encoded polylines for most of the country borders in the world, and I'd like to be able to load the encoded polyline from this file rather than cluttering up my page source. Do I use a javascript method read from a file and save the contents of the file to a string, then use the string in points: instead of providing the encoded polyline enclosed in quotes? Thanks in advance for your help. Can one save the encoded polyline to a file and then read from the file instead of pasting the entire encoded message into points: “” ?
