Re: [OpenLayers-Users] registering a click on a marker

[Tara Athan]

Eric- yes, thanks - I had that in the working version (registered to the map) before I started changing everything to try to get it to work on the marker. I think I have figured out the problem.  I have several layers of partially transparent markers (for a label), and I registered the event with the bottom layer only. I got it to work by putting a completely transparent marker over the whole thing and registered the event with that. I can live with this as I only have 8 markers that need this sort of behavior. But I am surprised that the click doesn't work for the underlying object - is this normal behavior?

I have a marker layer at a coarse resolution, with markers assigned to different variables. I would like to have a click on the marker cause a zoom in to that location, plus a replacement of the makers with a new set of markers that show more detail for that location. I am using code like this function handleMarkerClickEU(evt) { map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(13.000000,51.000000), 3); var vols_cyball = new OpenLayers.Layer.Markers( 'volunteers living in Europe (balloons)'); var vols_cynumb = new OpenLayers.Layer.Markers( 'volunteers living in Europe (numbers)'); var vols_cytext = new OpenLayers.Layer.Text( "text", {location: "../data/volsTextCYEU_utf8.csv"}); map.addLayers([vols_cyball, vols_cynumb, vols_cytext]); <?php include 'volsBalloonsAndNumbersCYEU_utf8.php'; ?> map.removeLayer(vols_ctball); map.removeLayer(vols_ctnumb); } var markerEU = new OpenLayers.Marker(new OpenLayers.LonLat(13.000000,51.000000),icon); vols_ctball.addMarker( markerEU); markerEU.events.register("onclick" , markerEU, handleMarkerClickEU); Hi, try "click" instead of "onclick" ? -- Eric -- My e-mail delivery has been unreliable lately, so I am asking for return receipts from all my email messages. OK'ing the return receipt lets me know that my message was delivered. Thank you.
