hi guys, first, please feel free to point me to a more beginner forum if need be; OL is totally new to me and I am only a WFS/WMS newbie anyway in general, so I don't mind being told to post elsewhere or whatever... right now, simple stuff, just trying to overlay a kml I made from a shapefile, onto the bing aerial layer. I had no trouble overlaying the same kml onto the OL WMS (I think it was "OpenLayers WMS", "http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0"; in my page), but their projection matched, now you can see in the attached image that my wales.kml and bing aerial do not match, but what shall I do? here is my code (largely from tutorials, just tailored for my work): <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> <head> <title>chris tutorialsContd3</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="../theme/default/style.css" type="text/css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <script src="http://ecn.dev.virtualearth.net/mapcontrol/mapcontrol.ashx?v=6.2&mkt=en-us";></script> <script src="OpenLayers.js"></script> <script> var map; function init(){ map = new OpenLayers.Map("map"); map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher()); var aerial = new OpenLayers.Layer.VirtualEarth("Aerial", { type: VEMapStyle.Aerial }); var layerWales = new OpenLayers.Layer.GML("Wales polygon", "chris/waleskml.kml", {format: OpenLayers.Format.KML}) map.addLayers([aerial,layerWales]); map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(-5, 51), 7); } </script> </head> <body onload="init()"> <h1 id="title">Bing Example</h1> <div id="tags"></div> <p id="shortdesc"> Demonstrates the use of Bing layers. </p> <div id="map" class="smallmap"></div> <div id="docs">This example demonstrates the ability to create layers using tiles from Bing maps.</div> </body> </html> thanks a lot to anyone who can help, chris j -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/beginner-Q-misaligned-layers-must-be-a-projection-tp3864257p3864257.html Sent from the OpenLayers Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
