[OpenLayers-Users] "interesting" cross browser problem with mouse click position

[percy]

that fixed it, thanks!

any idea when 2.2 will become the "stable" release?

I just got the SVN version out yesterday and was playing with that SWEET 
new MousePosition control. I need to wait to put that on our production 
server until it gets blessed, though.

Thanks again for the groovy interface,
Percy
