[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers with Rico and Prototype

[Jon Blower]

Hi Jim (and list),

I had this problem (the Rico issue) with version 2.1 as well - my fix
is documented at
http://www.resc.rdg.ac.uk/trac/ncWMS/wiki/OpenLayersChanges.  I don't
know whether this also works in 2.2.  I don't know about the
unloadCache issue.

Hope this helps,
Jon
