What is the wrong with the following code?

3 views (last 30 days)
address='1217 fayettevelle St., Durham, NC';
SERVER_URL = 'http://maps.google.com';
address = regexprep(address, ' ', '+');
queryUrl = sprintf('%s/maps/geo?output=xml&q=%s',SERVER_URL, address);
docNode = xmlread(queryUrl)
It is showing the following error:
Error using xmlread (line 97) Java exception occurred: java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?output=xml&q=1217+fayettevelle+St.,+Durham,+NC

It can't find the file. Check that the file you are giving it is actually a valid full path.

xmlread does not read urls, only files. To read urls you can use webread. I believe the following should work if http://maps.google.com/maps/geo were a valid URL at (unfortunately, it 404):
address='1217 fayettevelle St., Durham, NC';
SERVER_URL = 'http://maps.google.com';
address = regexprep(address, ' ', '+');
fullurl = sprintf('%s/maps/geo', SERVER_URL);
domnode = webread(fullurl, 'output', 'xml', 'q', address, weboptions('ContentType', 'xmldom'))
