Hi Gary,
yes, that's because there's (currently) no way to store the placemark height-above-ground in the database. While there's a free-text field for "human-readable" height information, the record fields date back to when only lat/lon was used in Google Earth. The missing field for GE placemark height is sort of a "legacy limitation". Sorry!

Subject: elevation AGL in .kml files
Hi, all:
Trying very hard to not be in the breakfast club this go-round...
I have generated a placemark in GE which reflects the elevation above ground level (AGL)
that the panorama was taken from. When I open this placemark locally, it shows the
location in 3D space.
However, I can't seem to get the elevation parameter into the WWP coordinates.
