[OpenLayers-Users] Google Popup feature layers

[Rob Booth]

Thanks John - I'll be looking at that as soon as I get the time :o(

Next question - can anybody point me at an example that works like the
Google Maps search results?  You could search for 'estate agents' in
'London', and be presented with a list of estate agents on the left hand
side of the screen, and the popups on the map.

I want to present a list of features listed in tabular form, and clicking on
the text navigates the map to the feature (popup).

Cheers

Rob
