How to draw path between placemark

Question

I'm new on kml and do not find the way to create a paths between several placemark (each with some coordinate, a name, description). I checked kml tutos but did not find this.

Any ideas ?

create a LineString element with the same coordinates (Longitude, Latitude, Altitude) as your Points.
