Hi Frederick,

supposing that the Control.Click looks like the one described in [1] you could achieve the desired behaviour like this (untested, sorry):

HTML:
<a href="#" onclick="return toggleClickControl();">toggle click-control</a>

JavaScript:
var toggleClickControl = function(){
  // supposing you have only one click-control
// another reference to the control should work as well: e.g. a global variable
  // caution: [1] does NOT define CLASS_NAME
  var ctrls = map.getControlsBy('CLASS_NAME', 'OpenLayers.Control.Click');
  var ctrl = (ctrls && typeof ctrls[0] !== 'undefined') ? ctrls[0] : null;
  if (ctrl !== null) {
    // check current state
    if (ctrl.active) {
      ctrl.deactivate();
    } else {
      ctrl.activate();
    }
  }
  return false;
}

Regards,
Marc

Hey list,

I have a very simple problem and I know, that the solution will be really simple, yet I haven't found it.

I'm loading a map and add the click control by using

...

var click = new OpenLayers.Control.Click();
                map.addControl(click);
                click.activate();

...

Now I want to disable this control when I click on a link on the page. I also want to activate the control again by clicking again. I know that I need something like a toggle function, but what I found on the web doesn't inspire me for a simple solution.
Can you help me with that?

Best,
Freddy
