Hi there, it seems that i have a simple requirement but my knowledge
on OpenLayer seems to limited.

I have a need to place 1 feature inside a map and after placing it,
drag this feature to the right place and then get the Lat / Long
coordinates. It would be nice that i can delete the feature to start
over..

But to start with:
I have managed to place a feature, but am not able to switch from
drawfeature to dragfeature.
If there a better ways to achieve my goal i am more then happy to learn!

    // create the map variable
    map = new OpenLayers.Map("map");

    // create layers
    var mapLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.OSM();                                  
        // openstreetmap
    var vectorLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Vector", {styleMap:
styleMap});             // vector

    // add the layers to the map
    map.addLayer(mapLayer);
    map.addLayer(vectorLayer);

    map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.MousePosition());
    var drawFeature = new OpenLayers.Control.DrawFeature(vectorLayer,
OpenLayers.Handler.Point);
    var dragFeature = new OpenLayers.Control.DragFeature(vectorLayer);
                        
    map.addControl(drawFeature);
    drawFeature.activate();

    vectorLayer.onFeatureInsert = function () {
        drawFeature.deactivate();
        // how to switch to drag feature???
        // dragFeature.activate(); does not seem to work
    }

    ...

    map.setCenter (lonLat, zoom);


Thanks
Marco
